The Bewley’s Wellness Breakfast will take place in Rochestown Park Hotel in Cork on September 23, to raise funds for Bewley’s Big Coffee Morning for Hospice campaign.
The panel discussion will explore themes of wellness, resilience and the power of community.
Leading lifestyle editor and wellness advocate, Melanie Morris, will moderate an expert panel at the breakfast event, which will include Occupational Therapist Simone Sheehan from Marymount University Hospital and Hospice and artist Shane O’Driscoll.
“Wellness is all about holistic health and can be incorporated into life individually and collectively,” said Ms Morris.
“Modern life can be very hectic and – even when we stop rushing around – our dependence on technology means we rarely give our brains a rest.
“In addition to reflecting on the vital work that Hospice provides in our communities, we will discuss how we can each make wellness part of our daily routine.”
The event is part of Bewley’s Big Coffee Morning for Hospice, a wider movement this month to raise funds for Together for Hospice.
“The Bewley’s Wellness Breakfast in Rochestown Park Hotel builds on the idea of the traditional coffee morning with some special additions that helped us to explore how we can take care of ourselves and each other,” said Catherine Casserly, Marketing Director of Bewley’s.
“It feels fitting to celebrate our 33rd year of this meaningful partnership with Hospice with an event centred on connections, conversation and community.
“We hope people will come away from this event feeling restored, imbued with a bit more knowledge and – most importantly – having raised funds for a very worthy cause.”
