In Ireland today, almost 20 months on from when Covid-19 first came to our shores, we are now potentially more health conscious as a nation than ever before.

Conversely during this most difficult time we have become more unhealthy; treating ourselves to more unhealthy food, drinking more alcohol, have had our previous active healthy habits curtailed and have gained more weight. Our awareness campaign from 2019 - which was postponed due to Covid-19 - has been renewed for this campaign.

This campaign encourages us all to set a healthier routine over coming months and amidst the Covid journey, and to avail of simple easy steps to keep up or to create a new healthy habit, whether that is eating better, getting more physically active, or learning how to take care of our mental wellbeing.
