Pop in to our new PCN Wellbeing Hub and meet your PCN Social Prescriber and Health and Wellbeing Coach. We will be open every two weeks on a Monday morning, and each session will include a different contributor(s) focussing on different aspects of social, mental and physical wellbeing. At our first event we plan to include a Mindfulness and Mindset session, and also get your ideas for finalising a programme of Hub events for the next few months. Some of the things that we are planning to include at the Hub (individual sessions will vary) are:
- information about local groups and services and how to access support
- a place to swap tips about good things going on in the local area and to find out your ideas for new ventures
- connect with others over a FREE cup of tea and coffee
- take part in a relaxation or mindfulness session
- find out about local free weight management services (with an optional ‘weigh in’ each time to keep you motivated);
- take part in taster sessions such as crafts and art
- hear talks from local groups and services, including those related to health, finance, housing, fire safety, police, council services and other things that can affect your wellbeing
- find out how to get more active and take part in a locally led walk
- make your views known
- just relax and play a board game (we will bring a good selection)
- access wellbeing self-help workbooks
Joining us at every session will be Eastlight Community homes –
