Bowring Park and Golf Course have organised a range of free activities aimed at promoting mental health and wellbeing amongst its residents for Mental Health Awareness Week.
Throughout the week, members of the Knowsley community have been treated to yoga classes, free golf sessions on selected days, fitness classes for mothers with babies and pregnant women, gardening classes and digital check-ins. Over the weekend, there were wellbeing walks and Mamafit classes on Friday, Disc Golf and free golf sessions on Saturday and a dog photography event on Sunday, where dog walkers will receive a free professional portrait photo of their beloved pets.
These activities, which are designed to be accessible and appealing regardless of interest or preference, have been well-received by the community and Helen Paton, Development Manager at Bowring Park, is delighted with how well the week has gone so far.
“We can’t emphasise enough the importance Bowring Park and Golf puts on supporting mental and physical health in the community,” she said.
“These activities can have such a positive impact on individuals as they can help the community get active and connect with new people. I’d like to thank everyone in the community for actively participating in the events so far and I hope the experiences offered during the week have helped to foster new connections, inspire physical activity, and enhance mental wellbeing.”
Prior to Mental Health Awareness Week, Bowring introduced its new membership prices for the 2023/24 season, with the aim of making golf more accessible and affordable to everyone.
The flexible membership options, including monthly-rolling memberships, 5-day memberships and 7-day memberships, have received positive feedback from both regular players and those interested in joining a new course.
More information about upcoming activities and affordable membership options can be found on the Bowring Park and Golf Course website.
