What can be done to help?

How we can do it?

·         Social activity: about local activities such as spider project, mental health space open the door charity, libraries etc.

·         Primary Care: GP practices, walk in centres, minor injuries clinic, pharmacies.

·         Have potential sponsorship to cover the cost of the map from projects, pharmaceutical companies.

 Why we are doing this?

·         To encourage people to connect more.

·         To raise awareness of the wealth of activities available across the Wirral.

·         To encourage people to be more physically active, raising awareness of spaces to exercise in and take more responsibility for their own health and care.

·         To raise awareness of role of primary care – and support the prevention of inappropriate attendances at A&E, Hospital attendances etc.
