How it works
We do things differently at Living Well. Our health specialists, trainers and coaches focus on you and your family’s strengths and help you make changes by:
- Enabling you to take control.
- Getting to the root causes of what makes change difficult.
- Building your confidence and motivation to change.
- Working together to make those changes.
It means we can help you succeed even when you face challenging multiple lifestyle changes or want to prevent long term ill health linked to your lifestyle.
We’ll also help you find the right kind of support even if it’s something we don’t provide, so you choose what’s right for you. You can even join us as a volunteer to work in your community helping each other live life better.
Living Well is commissioned by Rochdale Borough Council.
