WWS To Host Health And Wellness Expo
Widows Wear Stilettos Bermuda Chapter, will be celebrating its first anniversary in March and to commemorate this milestone, they will be hosting a health and wellness expo at the Hamilton Seventh Day Adventist Church on Thursday, March 5, 2015 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.
Although the expo is specifically geared for both men and women who are widowed in our community, it is open to the general public as a whole.
WWS Founder Michelle Furqan said, “We are delighted to offer a free health and wellness fair specifically for the widowed. At this juncture in the life of a widowed person, we feel that it is very important to focus on health and well-being.
“The widowed community has much to concentrate on after the death of a spouse; whether it is finances or their families or other areas of concern, and their health seemingly is last on the list of concerns. This expo will deal with the ‘whole’ person, from fitness, to nutrition, to health and psychological life coaching, which can assist in moving forward in this ‘new’ but healthy life-style.
Mrs. Furqan added, “To make this a successful event, we have organizations such as Open Airways, Northshore Medical Center, Bermuda Diabetes Association, Ashland [Neuromuscular Therapy] Clinic as well as other health and wellness professionals.
“These professionals are there to offer simple and practical advice to our audience that would assist with whatever ailments that they are encountering. We will also have a few booths that will provide on-site screening.”
WWS Bermuda aims to offer regular events for not only the widowed, but to anyone who has lost a significant partner.
“It is our desire to share the spirit of hope and healing with as many widows as possible. We are dedicated to assist an overlooked portion of the population by providing support, education, healing, caring, sharing and strength,” Mrs Furquan added.
