Nemo Rangers Healthy Club

What is a Healthy Club?

The Irish Life GAA Healthy Club Programme is the GAA's flagship programme to promote health and wellbeing in Ireland outside of its official game's structures. It aims to support GAA clubs and communities to achieve locally defined health and wellbeing goals that also reflect the national policy agenda for sport, physical activity, mental health, and preventative health. The programme sets out to help GAA clubs explore how they support the holistic health of their members and the communities they serve. 

Background 

Nemo Rangers put a call out to all club members and formed a Healthy Club team in Summer 2023 to get ready to join the next phase of the GAA Healthy Clubs Project. We received confirmation that we were part of Phase 6 of this national project in January 2024. If all objectives are achieved, we will be formally accredited by the GAA in 2025.

Launch

We had the official launch day on 22nd June in the club to coincide with the Street Leagues Final Day.

How you can get involved

If you are doing any initiatives or activities that you think may link with the Healthy Clubs initiative, in any way at all, let us know and we can make sure that they are entered onto the GAA Healthy Clubs portal as evidence to help Nemo Rangers to achieve accreditation as an official GAA Healthy Club.

If you have any ideas at all, no matter how small, for ways in which we can continue to ensure Nemo Rangers is a Healthy Club for the members and the local community, let us know.

If you would like to help and have specific skills in any of the priority areas, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
