Personal Development & Wellbeing

We support people to improve their health and wellbeing through workshops, courses and locally based programmes delivered in collaboration with other providers.

What is Personal Development & Wellbeing?

Personal Development and Wellbeing is the ongoing process of improving yourself and taking care of your mental, physical, and emotional health.

Buíon Personal Development & Wellbeing Supports:

Our holistic, person-centred programmes support people along their personal development and wellbeing journey. Programmes are delivered in collaboration with community groups and voluntary organisations and are especially focused on those experiencing social isolation or looking for a first step programme to improve their quality of life.

We offer a range of activities for community groups across Waterford City & County. Our programme offerings include arts, crafts and creativity, as well as yoga and mindfulness to support wellbeing and relaxation.

We also provide cookery, music, fitness, dance and drama, giving people opportunities to learn new skills, build confidence and have fun.

Our storytelling workshops encourage imagination and creativity, whilst our personal development and resilience workshops help people develop confidence and learn ways to manage challenges.

We also bring people together through community events, such as International Women’s Day, creating opportunities to meet others, make new connections and feel part of the community.
