Description

Foster Carer Wellbeing Morning – Saturday October 10th

Hosted by Tusla in collaboration with Flexitime

Looking After Yourself While Looking After Others

Following on from our recent successful outing at the South Court Hotel, join us at the The Rine Hotel (formerly The Inn At Dromoland) on Saturday October 10th for a supportive wellbeing morning has been created to give foster carers an opportunity to pause, breathe and focus on their own wellbeing in a calm and welcoming environment.

Foster carers give so much of themselves day-to-day, and this morning is designed to provide a supportive space to:

• Take time for yourself
• Learn simple wellbeing tools
• Hear relatable experiences
• Connect with others
• Leave feeling supported and appreciated

The overall tone of the morning will be relaxed, practical and accessible for all attendees.

Please feel free to bring a family member or friend with you on the day.

Breathwork, talks, tea/coffee/snacks & connection

What To Expect

Lara Slattery is our expert wellbeing facilitator for the day, will guide attendees through a gentle breathwork session, share insights on recognising and preventing burnout, and provide practical self-care techniques that can be used long after the event.

The morning will include:

• Guided breathwork session
• Burnout & wellbeing talk
• Foster carer experience talk
• Light self-care/stretching session
• Tea/coffee and refreshments
• Opportunity to connect with others in a supportive environment

To help create a comfortable and supportive environment, the morning will use a relaxed cabaret-style seating layout rather than traditional theatre seating.
