Community Leadership for Health Fund
Championing Healthy Lifestyles in Your CommunityCounty Councillors across Worcestershire are working hard to improve healthy lifestyles as part of the £500,000 Community Leadership for Health Fund. The fund was established by NHS Worcestershire in September 2008 to help Worcestershire County Councillors act as champions for better health and play a role in improving the health of their constituents.
Through the initiative, Councillors have been working to develop and implement projects which encourage local people to eat healthily and move more. As well as supporting initiatives which promote sensible drinking and provide support to help people quit smoking. To date over £70,000 has been awarded to initiatives across the County.
