The Deputy Mayor of Causeway Coast and Glens, Councillor Tanya Stirling, has welcomed members of the Mosside Monday Club to a reception in Cloonavin.
The Monday Club is more than a social club, it supports members to learn new skills, and participate in days out and fundraising. The group has also helped empower its members to participate in local decision-making regarding health and services which effect the community.
Speaking after the visit, Councillor Stirling said: “I was delighted to welcome the Mosside Monday Club to Council headquarters and spend time talking about issues that matter to them.
“The visit gave the group the chance to learn more about Council and to ask questions that they felt were relevant to Council business.
“Community Groups such as Mosside are vital for building stronger, more resilient communities by fostering social connections, promoting civic engagement, and improving wellbeing.
“This group helps overcome loneliness within the community and ensures that particularly rural people have a voice.”
The Deputy Mayor added: “Thank you to the volunteers who give their time and offer a programme of activities which is both interesting and relevant to its members.”
