So, Summer has come and gone, in the blink of an eye! Back to school and we hope we have been able to reflect just some of the support and opportunities available for children, young people and their parents/carers.
Our Locality Planning Groups have resumed meeting this morning (5th September) in Armagh and will operate at full speed throughout the rest of the year. We welcome anyone working or volunteering to improve outcomes for children & young people and we’ll be delighted to tell you more, if you are interested. Dates for the next meetings are on the second last page, as always.
See you later in September!

On Saturday 15th June 2024, the Feel Good Armagh Community Networking Event was held on The Mall in Armagh.
This free event was organised to help all ages of the communities in Armagh to find out what support and opportunities were available on their doorstep.
Over 50 services and organisations held information stands to inform the public (and each other) of what they provide, and activities were held for children along with historical walking tours of The Mall and music and food were provided too!
