The Fermanagh and Omagh Locality Planning Groups celebrated Infant Mental Health Week on 16 June at Enniskillen Castle with local families.

Families were welcomed into the historic grounds to play and have fun with physical and learning initiatives hosted by locality planning members including Bubble Toddler Yoga, Take Five, storytelling, puppets and arts and crafts.

The Children and Young People’s Strategic Partnership (CYPSP) Fermanagh and Omagh Locality Planning Groups have been supporting the ‘Give Your Child the Best Start in Life’ campaign in the Western Outcomes Area this month through a series of local area initiatives.

This event brought together 58 parents and families with practitioners to celebrate the best start in life that children are provided with and also to demonstrate the value of positive parenting and show support to parents by their peers and local community. Families were welcomed into the historic grounds of Enniskillen Castle by Fermanagh and Omagh District Council to play and have fun with physical and learning initiatives that were hosted by the locality planning group members including Bubble Toddler Yoga, Take Five, storytelling, puppets and arts and crafts to name a few.
