Siel Bleu Ireland improves the quality of life of older adults, through fun and interactive, tailored exercise programmes. We are all aware of the importance of physical activity but its benefits for older adults can often be underestimated. At Siel Bleu Ireland we believe in challenging mind sets to transform the lives of Ireland’s older population in the long-term, insuring each person has the ability and confidence to live as full, independent and happy lives as possible.
