EA Lending Library - Omagh

Men's Health / Women's Health / Workplace Health

Reading books benefits both your physical and mental health, and those benefits can last a lifetime. They begin in early childhood and continue through the senior years.

Reading is very, very good for you. Research shows that regular reading:

Improves brain connectivity
Increases your vocabulary and comprehension
Empowers you to empathize with other people
Aids in sleep readiness
Reduces stress
Lowers blood pressure and heart rate
Fights depression symptoms
Prevents cognitive decline as you age
Contributes to a longer life

With all this in mind the Health and Wellbeing Team along with the EA Champion Network are thrilled to bring the EA Lending Library to Omagh HQ.

The Lending Library is located in the Canteen at Omagh HQ and is stocked with a range of books, waiting for you to enjoy!

The rules are simple:

Take a book or two
If possible, leave a book or two

We’d be delighted to hear of any questions or comments you may have on the Lending Library, please email healthandwellbeing@eani.org.uk
