Men’s Health: Connection, Community & Looking Out For Each Other

Morning Focus is marking County Clare Men’s Health Week 2026 (15–21 June) with the theme “What’s Your Small Step?” as part of a week-long series of activities, discussions, and ways to take part.   The initiative, supported by Clare County Council and the Men’s Health Pledge, encourages men to make small, practical changes to improve physical and mental wellbeing.   We will explore how small, realistic lifestyle changes can make a meaningful difference.   Today we focus on connection, community and looking out for each other. Alan Morrissey spoke to Flan Hehir, Ennis Men’s Shed, and Derek Clune, Shannon Men’s Shed, to learn more about the importance of connection. Photo (c) Clare FM
