  7. Other ideas (things to do) • Self-care groups across all GP surgeries with support from VCSE groups • Community groups teaching IT • Referrals from GPs and community groups into social prescribing to reduce isolation • Volunteers in GP surgeries • Training in local community projects e.g. motivational interviewing skills • Updated directory of services/digital front door/portal • Make health events fun: Walks for health, tea clubs, dance clubs, Men in Sheds • What about the 60-80%? Setting goals: What can I do more of? (exercise, diet, reduce alcohol) • Make better use of what’s out there e.g. health TV programmes • Invest in community development agencies • Encourage peer support to maintain community contact • Making Every Contact Count • Getting information about initiatives out into the community • Community transport to enable self-care • Community Webs for self-care • Community group outreach (finding the gaps) • Assistive technology marketplace to support engagement (e.g. visual impairment) • Tapping into community projects for knowledge (that isn’t held city or region-wide) @SocialEnt_UK @IVAR_UK #BHPselfcare @SocialEnt_UK @IVAR_UK #BHPselfcare

  8. Ways to be doing things (cultural shifts) • Value tangibly those who support wellbeing (as with health) • Strategic leadership on self care/community-led solutions • Support those that want to volunteer • Celebrate individual benefit • Get people living healthier before they reach crisis • Share risk, information and resources • De-medicalise language around self-care • Support around barriers such as fuel poverty • Use IT to collaborate/communicate • Encouraging positive mental health will impact on physical health @SocialEnt_UK @IVAR_UK #BHPselfcare @SocialEnt_UK @IVAR_UK #BHPselfcare
