About the event
The past two years have moved the partnership beyond a pilot, and has created a practical, evidence-based model for tackling health inequalities through prevention, behaviour change and social connection, impacting on key Manchester City Council and NHS strategic targets.
During this Webinar we will share the impact of the first two-years of a Health & Wellbeing Coach role shared between Better Health MCR and Platt Hall, Manchester City Galleries. This groundbreaking partnership between Better Health MCR and Platt Hall, with a jointly funded Health & Wellbeing Coach role, demonstrates that combining NHS health coaching with community-based creativity, heritage, gardening and social connection delivers measurable health improvements, reduces pressure on primary care, and gives Platt Hall a sustainable civic purpose.
