To mark Men’s Health Week (11th to 18th of June 2018) the Irish Men’s Sheds Association are running an event for men in Dublin. The event will be kindly hosted by Dublin 12 Men’s Shed on Friday the 15th of June from 12pm to 2.30pm. This event is open to all men, shedders and non- shedders so please spread the word and bring a friend. The aim of this event is to heighten awareness of preventable health problems among men and to support men in making positive lifestyle choices.

The Irish Heart Foundation will be there on the day to provide free blood pressure checks to all men in attendance. From 2.30pm to 4pm free blood pressure checks will also be available to the general community so please let your families and neighbours know.

A number of short talks and information stands will also be provided by the Irish Cancer Society, Diabetes Ireland, The Migraine Association of Ireland, Get Ireland Walking and Haven Pharmacy.
