Feel Good Dungannon Community Information Day 2025

Feel Good Dungannon was a vibrant community information and networking event, designed to showcase the wide range of local services, programmes, supports and activities available across the wider Dungannon area for people of all ages.

Bringing together over 40 organisations from statutory, community and voluntary sectors, the event offered a unique opportunity for the public to engage directly with service providers, while also enabling organisations to strengthen connections and explore opportunities for collaboration.

On the day, attendees benefited from free Health Checks provided by Verve Health Trainers and there was the opportunity to attend the innovative Autism Reality Experience Bus, this provided attendees with greater awareness and a deeper understanding of autism. The overarching aim of Feel Good Dungannon was to inform, signpost and inspire, while promoting wellbeing, inclusion and connectedness across the community.
