Living and feeling better can start with a simple step-connecting. Health Connections Mendip is provided by your Mendip GP practices to improve your health and wellbeing.
We like to plan ahead for lots of things in life but what have we put in place for the end of life? Spending time thinking about what is important to us now and what might be important to us towards the end of life is good for us all, no matter what stage of life we are at. We can then make our wishes and preferences known to our loved ones. This can re-assure us that those close to us know our preferences and reassure those around us, that they know our wishes.
For people registered with a Mendip GP only.
If you are a professional interested in this work please book onto one of our Let’s Connect for Professionals sessions.
Our Let’s Connect work is all about the power of communities to support each other by spreading information. We don’t want people to say ‘if only I had known that’, we want people to say ‘I know where you can get help for that’. The more that we are all empowered with knowledge and skills, the more we can help each other as a community…a Mendip wide network of connections!
As part of this work, Let’s Connect have put together a series of very short training courses for the anyone and everyone in Mendip to join in and learn how they can pass on information to people in their communities; whether they are your friends, neighbours, family, colleagues or anyone you stop and chat to!
All these courses can be attended for free via Eventbrite and run on a monthly basis. You can join us on one of the Zoom sessions listed on the website or arrange a small in-person training session (following Government CV-19 guidelines). Please contact us to discuss if you want a session just for your organisation or group.
