Wellness with Wolo is an ongoing project aimed at increasing awareness of our physical and mental health and wellbeing. Giving individuals and families the opportunities to try different practices and activities to proactively enhance their lives.
We want to inspire people to habitually prioritise self-care, to ensure they are surviving, thriving and living their best lives.
Wolo has been busy, working hard behind the scenes, and planning lots of upcoming wellness events. We have a calendar full of wellness activities tailored to nurture mind, body and soul.

Sharing Stories with Kevin Webber - Dead Man Running
Kevin has been a friend of WOLO for a few years now, he has been kind enough to write about WOLO in the Sunday Mirror and we are honoured that he is joining us to talk about his challenges both in health and the fundraisers he has taken on such as ultra-marathons and how he is making the most of what he has.....
Kevin has written a book, Dead Man Running: One Man's Story of Running to Stay Alive is inspirational. Diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer in 2014 and given just two years to live, Kevin started a brutal regime of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
He also started running and refused to stop. Across the deserts of the Sahara, the snow and ice of the Arctic and the jungles of Cambodia, Kevin's journey has taken him from the depths of despair to achieving the impossible.
Sharing Stories with Matt Eamer - I was was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer at just 39 years
In September of 2020 Matt Eamer was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer at just 39 years, Matt will join us to share how he managed to find that strength along with a positive mindset to shift his perspective in life and prioritise what really matters in life 💛
In September 2020, after having escalating abdmonial pain and a call with the GP , Matt had been recommended getting an ultrasound done. However, the pain had become so bad that he went straight to A&E.
“I had no thoughts at all that my symptoms could be caused by cancer. At that stage I had very limited knowledge of bowel cancer and it simply felt like something ‘had got stuck’. I’d just celebrated my son’s second birthday and we’d had a barbecue. I joked that I’d probably eaten a bad sausage and was suffering the consequences of overeating!
Listen here to learn how Matt found the strength along with a positive mindset to shift his perspective in life and prioritise what really matters in life 💛

Katie Costello is joining us to talk about, and guide us though some of the feelings and thoughts we might have around death.
