SPCA Health & Wellbeing Toolkit Now Live!

The SPCA Health and Wellbeing toolkit, a resource for Town & Parish Councils, is now available via the SPCA website – direct link here

As part of the SPCA health & wellbeing (H&W) project, funded by Public Health, a web-based resource page, the ‘H&W toolkit’ has been created to support T/PC who require information on matters relating to H&W.

The site contains three main areas:

1. Partner Organisations and Resources. We have several partners who lead on health matters across the county, for example Everyone Health, who run the free health checks, healthy lifestyle programmes and making every contact count training. Their information, along with a number of other key organisations, is available via the toolkit. Also included in this section are relevant links to access data relating to your locality, which will support future activity around this theme.
2. Funding Opportunities. This section lists local and national funders who support H&W related initiatives.
3. Training. This section contains several training opportunities, including links to relevant webinars, all related to H&W.

Finally, in the coming weeks, there will be a link to examples of local H&W initiatives developed by T/PCs to inspire and showcase the positive work taking place across the county.

The toolkit is continually being updated, so do check back from time to time as new information will likely have been added.

As a reminder, if your T/PC is enthused by improving the health and wellbeing of your local community, please do get in touch with the H&W project officer to share your thoughts, ideas and discuss opportunities, as we may be able to support with your endeavours.
