Wise Men of The East Helping to Lower Health Risks

Thu, 21/08/2014 - 22:02

Concerns about men’s health were raised by the network of men’s groups in east Belfast through a pilot evening Men’s Clinic at Woodstock Lodge in 2007 and the indicators were that men would attend a free thirty minute check-up consultation.  From 2012 thanks to the Belfast Health Trust and East Belfast Community Development Agency the resources were put in place at Holywood Arches Health Centre for two consultation rooms to be used for the Men’s Clinic.  Since then the service has recruited over 250 men for a free MOT health check up with a 99% satisfaction level rate.   The aim of

Glentoran 3 - 1 Warrenpoint Town

Sat, 16/08/2014 - 17:32

Glentoran won their first three point haul of the season against Warrenpoint Town at a blustery Oval this afternoon.  Manager Eddie Patterson rang the changes after Wednesday night’s defeat against Linfield with Jay Magee, Marcus Kane, Jim O’Hanlon, David Howland and Curtis Allen all drafted into the starting eleven.  With both first and second choice ‘keepers Elliott Morris and Aaron Hogg out injured last gasp signing from Islandmagee Chris Keenan also came in over six years after his one and only previous appearance for the Glens.

Glens look to Bounce Back

Sat, 16/08/2014 - 12:04

Following a disappointing 3-2 defeat at the hands of Big Two rivals Linfield on Saturday night, Glentoran will need to bounce back instantly and hopefully record our first victory of the new season at home to Warrenpoint today.

Glentoran led Linfield by two goals to nil early in the second half but sloppy defending allowed Linfield back into the game before they grabbed the last gap winner in stoppage time. Despite the obvious disappointment, there is time for optimism with The Glens arguably still missing their centre back partnership and number 1 striker Curtis Allen.

Bar Info for This Saturday

Fri, 15/08/2014 - 02:38

If like me, you thought we didn't deserve to lose last night against Linfield, then get yourself down to the Oval on Saturday for our next home fixture against Warrenpoint Town. If we perform like we did last night then I'm confident we will get a first win on the board.
