TODAY'S PENARTH AREA EVENTS:

Multimedia Visual Art Exhibition at Llandough Hospital:

7 am - 8 pm. So when our mental health fails us does the answer lie in the physical body, the disembodied mind or somewhere in-between? And to whom should we look to for explanation?

Workout With Chelle Buggybeat at Trinity Methodist Church:

• GETTING OUT OF THE HOUSE - Getting out and about with your little one is great for mental health and makes you feel fantastic- especially in the winter when most people are stuck indoors.
• MEET NEW FRIENDS- Our Buggy Beat parents are so welcoming and friendly, we laugh and have fun in our classes!
• GET BACK INTO FITNESS- After having your little one it can be hard to get back into fitness, our classes are perfect - work at your own pace and you will slowly get back into fitness safely.
• BOND WITH YOUR LITTLE ONE- Doing physical activity is a great thing for your child to see and they love to get involved too! Watch the little ones play and bond together too!

£5 per session no pre-booking required. Bring an exercise mat and a bottle of water. 11 am.
