Congratulations to Dr Noel McCaffrey who recently received a United Nations Award

Congratulations to Dr. Noel McCaffrey, a doctor in Sports & Exercise Medicine at NOHC who was deservedly named as one of the United Nations 2022 Healthy Ageing 50. He is one of a group of 50 individuals from around the world (and the only Irish man) recognised for their extraordinary achievements in making the world a better place in which to grow older. Dr McCaffrey is on a mission to improve our ageing populations’ health and quality of life through exercise.

A passion for the benefits of exercise and a firm believer in the body’s power to heal itself convinced him that there was an urgent need not just among people who have had serious health issues, but those in their 40s and 50s who may have slipped out of regular exercise. Read Lorna Siggins’ wonderful article in the Irish Examiner and learn how you can join the ExWell revolution.
