This week is Men's Health Week and it’s all about ‘Making Connections' as PJ Gallagher and Jim McCabe encourage all the lads to check in, check up and check it out.
International Men's Health Week 2021 will run from Monday 14th until Sunday 20th June and one of the main reasons that this week takes place is that the health of men in Ireland is particularly poor and will, potentially, get worse in the future. A recent report titled 'Men's Health in Numbers' found that:
Across the week on Morning Glory PJ & Jim will be getting some important info out on the airwaves for the boys amongst all their usual fun.
Just by listening you could win hundreds of euros to spend at Lloyds Pharmacy where they have a free Men’s Health Check Service in all their pharmacies nationwide.
Denis O’Driscoll, Superintendent Pharmacist at LloydsPharmacy, said, “The Men’s Health Check service in LloydsPharmacy stores around Ireland is a private and free service that can help those with concerns around heart disease, erectile dysfunction, diabetes, smoking cessation, mental health, sexual health, hair loss and skin conditions. Free blood pressure and BMI checks are also available as part of the service so we would encourage anyone with concerns in these areas to drop into their local LloydsPharmacy now to talk to a pharmacist.”
And to top it all off on Friday June 18th, LIVE on air PJ & Jim will be having a Sausage party which you can be part of wherever you are just buy purchasing our specially selected Barry John sausage sizzler pack from
Barry John Sausages is a family run gourmet sausage manufacturing business from Cavan delivering to your door all over Ireland. Barry’s secret to these scrumptious gourmet sausages originates from his unique “spice recipe” he crafted from an early age. This is the award-winning traditional pork-based recipe he uses when creating all of the imaginative quirky flavours that Barry John Sausages are renowned for.
Proceeds from sales go to the Marie Keating Foundation and the great work they do to support men on a cancer journey.
You can also text MARIE to 50300 to donate €4 (The Marie Keating Foundation will receive a minimum of €3.60. T&Cs apply Service Provider: LIKECHARITY Helpline: (076) 680 5279)
Men are more likely to talk about the news, sports or the weather than they are about their health. But the Marie Keating Foundation says it’s time to Get Men Talking because 1 in 3 men in Ireland will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lives even though many cancers can be prevented and most treated successfully if caught early.
PJ & Jim will be broadcasting their Sausage party LIVE on Friday morning from The Marker Hotel, THE spot to re-engage with friends, family, and colleagues this summer.
