The Healthy Worcestershire Programme offers free community sessions which bring together a range of health improvement services to help build social connections closer to where people are living.

Weekly sessions are run in local venues within the heart of communities, and offer:

• physical activities such as resistance bands exercises, yoga, and tai chi - all focused on mobility, strength and balance
• healthy lifestyle advice, with wellbeing discussions on topics including mental wellbeing and nutrition
• community safety information, such as avoiding fraud or doorstep crime; and
• links to a wide range of other healthy promoting local activities in your community 

The aim is to help residents achieve the best physical, mental, and social wellbeing possible for them.

How to join

Residents can book online, via telephone or turn up on the day.

The reasons people have shared for joining the groups include ‘getting out to meet new people’ and ‘to get fitter’. What is being noticed most though, is the connections being built as people come together to improve their social wellbeing and have fun!
