We are really looking forward to this event.

Aged over 55?

Join us at this Age Friendly Expo for information from organisations with stands, workshops and presentations this Thursday 30th October at Arklow Bay Hotel.

This Expo is about finding out more about services in the county that promote a better lifestyle for older people and is an opportunity to meet the Executive Committee of the Older People's Council.

We are also delighted to welcome the Irish Heart Foundation mobile unit to our Expo, who will be outside on the day. They will be accompanied by a Hidden Hearing mobile unit also, who will offer free ear wax checks and free hearing tests.

All those over the age of 55, or who would care for, or live with, those over the age of 55 are welcome to attend. This event starts at 11am and finishes at 4pm.

The aims of this event are to;
• Promote a better lifestyle for older people
• Promote the Executive Committee as a voice for older people, to represent older people in County Wicklow

If your child is in junior infants, they will bring home a
letter from school, at around this time of year, to ask permission for them to get their 2 needles:

- 4 in 1 needle which protects from diphtheria, polio, tetanus and
whooping cough

- MMR needle (a follow-up from the 12 months MMR) which protects from measles, mumps and rubella.

You can find more information about this in our leaflet about school needles here:https://www.paveepoint.ie/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/School-Vaccines-A5-Pavee-AF-LR-03.pdf

We’re proud to share that the Wicklow Travellers Primary Health Care Project will be taking a stand at this year’s Older Persons Expo — a celebration of ageing well, community connection, and inclusive living.
This is a powerful opportunity to ensure that all voices are heard and represented, especially those from communities who have historically been marginalised. By taking part, the Travellers Health Project is helping to build a more inclusive Wicklow, where older people from every background feel seen, valued, and supported.
💬 Representation matters.
🤝 Inclusion strengthens communities.

Come along, connect, learn, and show your support for a Wicklow that welcomes everyone.

Planning to travel abroad with your baby, but worried about measles?

👶🏻 Kids usually get their first dose of the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine when they are 1.

But, your GP can give them a dose of the MMR vaccine if they’re aged 6-11 months. 👨🏻‍⚕️ It’s best to get it 2 weeks before you travel.

If your baby is under 6 months old, they can’t get the MMR vaccine. They still have any protection passed on during pregnancy.

If your child gets the MMR vaccine before they’re 12 months, they still need their regular vaccine schedule. 📅

If you or other children haven’t had 2 doses of the MMR vaccine, you can also get it free from your GP.
