Well-Being Project

The Well-Being Project replaces the Shepherds Bush Healthy Living Centre and will run across several distinct areas in Hammersmith & Fulham (H&F). The overriding aim is to support the young, the disadvantaged and the elderly live healthier and more productive lives.

An exciting new innovation, H&F Health Trainers, also begins in 2008. We will work with the local Primary Care Trust, including GP surgeries, to motivate and help referred individuals plan and achieve personal health goals and improve their quality of life. The scheme is funded for three years, generating almost £500,000 income, and will provide 4.5 full-time posts.

Existing and highly successful Well-Being Project schemes include: supporting carers, food and nutrition guidance and education, and early years support for school children.
