WALKING TRACK

The walking track at Garrywilliam is open for use and the committee anticipate that it will be very busy due to the current situation, Please be very mindful of keeping your distance from other users and adhere to Covid19 advise from the Government and the HSE.

This is a very difficult time for everyone in our community and we all need to be mindful of the more vulnerable in our midst. Check in on elderly neighbours and people living alone who may not have a support network but please do so without compromising their health. Indeed a quick phone call to make sure they are ok may help. Sometimes a person just needs to hear and speak to another human being for a few minutes and it can make all the difference. Just spare a moment for them. Stay safe everyone and adhere to the rules.
