Our Coffee Morning

Through our monthly chats on our online coffee morning, we are often inspired by the topics that come up.

These topics can range from the joys of being a pet owner, the pros and cons of parachute jumping, and some personal stories that are shared with messages that have helped us all.

In our blog, we share those pieces that made us smile or think for a while.

We hope they might inspire conversations of your own…

Coffee Morning 6th September 2021

,
As usual, the conversation at the Havin’ a Laugh Coffee Morning was full of variety. Most of the conversation centered on things we do in our spare time, from kayaking, to painting, to travelling and, of course, seeing as it was a morning with only women, online shopping.

Coffee Morning 9th August 2021

,
A wide variety of topics were discussed at this month’s Coffee Morning, with the majority of the conversation about available Mental Health services. We also had a visit from Riona Rochford from the Volunteer Centre in Sligo, who had lots of great information on Volunteering. Inevitably, given the fact that we are Irish, the coffee morning started with a chat about the weather.

THE BOOK

The Book is a collection of great stories, jokes, poems, art, and imagery that will inspire and delight. It’s a wonderful book that you can easily dip in and out of and it would also make a wonderful gift.

All of the amazing content in The Book was submitted by people from Sligo, Leitrim and beyond between the ages of 6 and 94, and proceeds from sales will go directly towards building our new online voucher buddy platform.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Our mission is to assist with the promotion of positive mental health through life-enhancing activities, connecting people and Havin’ a Laugh. We create events for everyone that showcase the excellent life-enhancing activities available to us in the Northwest of Ireland.

We believe that those of us who are ‘up for it and at it’ can inspire those who may not yet have that drive, and by taking part in one of our awareness events, you will get the added benefits of becoming more energised, clear-headed and relaxed.
