| One You Cheshire East – Victoria Lockett
Victoria took us through a presentation for One You Cheshire East, this programme aims to improve the health and wellbeing of residents by offering guidance and signposting to various services regarding weight management, healthy eating, physical activity, smoking cessation, alcohol awareness and sexual health. Life style support managers can work with people who are not eligible for the scheme, do some drop ins and work closely with GP’s and practice nurses.
There will be a public launch in March, hopefully including Congleton.
Victoria to send full brief to MS for circulation.
