5 th May, Community Warden Martin Dineen supported a community clean up around Avenue de Rennes in Mahon. This was an initiative between Mahon
Community Association Transition
and
Year students of Nagle College.
The hugely successful Play Packs for Older adults were produced once again in May. The Playful Paradigm Project, funded jointly by Cork City Council and HSE Cork and Kerry Community Healthcare , developed a new pack for the summer months, and worked with Community team members to packs and deliver 2,000 to recipients across the city. These packs included games, puzzles, reading materials and wildflower seeds and once again have been well received by senior Corkonians. Partners in the Playful Paradigm Project include Cork City Council, Healthy Cities, Cork Sports Partnership and Meitheal Mara.
Community Team members supported Corporate Affairs in rolling out a modified version of the Lady Mayoress’s coffee mornings, by organising 5 socially distanced community events inMay to celebrate the role of community resilience during the pandemic. Despite a mixed bag of weather, the events were very positive engagement opportunities, where community members enjoyed the occasion of welcoming their first citizens and showcasing some of their projects.
