How do I meet a Health Connector?
You’ll speak with a member of the team who will arrange with you a time to meet to have a chat about what you would like to do, your interests and how we can support you.
You will feel empowered to do things for yourself which will enable you to live a happier, healthier and more fulfilled life. Health Connectors provide short term support, helping you to take the first steps to finding the support you need and making sustainable changes.
We also signpost to other agencies/resources if this would be more appropriate.
