ARC Fitness - "More than a Podcast...Podcast"

Welcome everyone to our final 'More than a Podcast' episode of 2024 –and what a year it has been. We have covered topics ranging from relapse, nutrition in recovery, dopamine hunting and mindfulness in recovery. For this episode we are delighted to partner alongside our friends in the Western Health and Social Care Trust to pick apart a topic close to our hearts—co-production and community involvement. Joining me today on the podcast today are two fantastic guests both from the Western Trust’s Personal & Public Involvement Team - Oonagh Quigg and Anne McMonagle.
