Getting Ready for a busy 2021 After a challenging year the community centre is getting ready to welcome new groups and the return of all our old groups. The centre has so much to offer, Donabate Library is one of the most spacious, wonderful librarys in the county. Our gym Fresh Fitness now has dual access equipment which means that is accessible to people with mobility issues, our fitness professionals are there to help and guide you on your fitness journey. Bright Sparks Community Preschool is an award wining school with morning and afternoon sessions. Café Natural coffee shop, has indoor and outdoor dining options. For Seniors we have the dynamic Active Age for All (AAfA) with over 200 members, with an age range of 55 to 90+. Our activities are aimed at promoting the health and wellbeing of our members, with the emphasis on enjoyment. New members are warmly welcomed.
We offer a transition… a few members are still working in paid employment, some fulltime and some part-time – but the greatest number are retired. Of this latter group there are many who are hugely involved in voluntary work – from Meals on Wheels to cultural festivals and have associations with other local clubs. We ran physical classes in August during Level 2 but then we went online with Zoom classes in Sit and Get Fit, Stronger for Longer and Yoga. All our tutors were delighted to continue online. As soon as we return to Level 2 physical classes will resume in DPCC but in the event that we don't, we will continue with our Zoom classes online. In order that many more of our members can participate and enjoy our Zoom classes, we intend to offer classes in basic technology i.e. how to use a smart phone or tablet, how to get online, how to use Zoom.
Our present tranche of classes will now be available on our website www.activeageforall.com All information about classes and membership is available online on our website or by texting 086 880 6808.
Spirit never ages, it stays forever young
