The Cork International Hotel has launched a special Galentine’s Afternoon Tea for the month of February. It is the perfect excuse to round up your pals, family members or work colleagues and indulge in some delicious treats for the month of love. Everyone knows that friendships are the most important and not only do strong friendships provide a sense of belonging and purpose, improve our self-confidence, lower stress and help us cope with trauma and life challenges, there are physical benefits too. A strong social network may also reduce the risk of high blood pressure, decrease depression and even help us live longer lives. We have quite simply had enough of the sofa and zoom and it is high time we donned the lippy and caught up with our gals in style.
