Duleek Bellewstown GFC celebrated the GAA’s National Inclusion Fitness Day on Thursday with an event at their grounds in Duleek which was attended by children of all ages with special needs and their families.
The GAA’s second annual National Inclusion Fitness Day was held to coincide with the European Week of Sport. The aim of the event is to promote exercise and physical activity to everyone regardless of their age, sexual orientation, ability, ethnicity, nationality, or fitness level.
