1/4 Delighted today to be launching a pilot programme providing free sanitary products in some of the staff bathrooms in @UHW_Waterford. This is happening thanks to funding from @ProgrammeSpark and support from the @RCPI_Trainees Health and Well-being Committee.

Today is #WorldObesityDay 1.9 billion people are predicted to be living with obesity by 2035. To make a difference this #WorldObesityDay, we need to have conversations to change outdated perspectives, correct misconceptions and end stigmas. #WOD2023#LetsTalkAboutObesity
🏊♀️ The tender is now live for a feasibility study on the decommissioned Tidal Pools at Ladies Beach in #Salthill 👌
I was delighted to secure funding in budgets 2022 & 2023 for this.
Many thanks to all @GalwayCityCo & Steven Tummons for his assistance in getting to this point!
🩸Women, girls and people who menstruate should never face the indignity of period poverty.
🏴Proud that we are making period dignity for all a reality.
✅Free period products have been widely available in communities ahead of the Act taking full legal effect tomorrow.
Spark Seed is back!✨
It was my pleasure to run the last iteration of this initiative - wishing @happymadwifemum all the best as she takes the reins!🥰
