Hounslow Council have launched a new health and wellbeing service aiming to help residents make positive lifestyle changes.
Healthy Hounslow has replaced the old programme in One You Hounslow as the borough's health lifestyle service and it is in partnership with HRCH/Feltham and Bedfont Primary Care Network, MoreLife, BeeZee Bodies and Lampton Leisure.
The new service includes many different activities, for example: health coaching, targeted health check outreach, aftercare support clubs and further action on food insecurity, and it also builds on the existing work on weight management, physical activity and smoking cessation.
Hounslow Council's Cabinet Member for Adults and Health Integration, Councillor Samia Chaudhary, said: "One You Hounslow has supported thousands of people in our borough to lead healthier and more active lifestyles, such as helping over 6,000 people quit smoking. The impact on people's health is simply life-changing.
"We will build on this success, by working closely with our local partners to provide the new Healthy Hounslow service. They all have the expertise and a proven track record to deliver the best health outcomes for our residents.
"Good health and wellbeing are vital and we are committed to using Healthy Hounslow to improve the quality of life for everyone in our borough."
The goal of Healthy Hounslow is to: live well, feel better, and enjoy life, and it also will continue to make people more active, stop smoking, and eat more healthily.
Stuart King, managing director of the BeeZee Bodies, said: "We're excited to be part of the Healthy Hounslow partnership, supporting families and adults to make sustainable healthy lifestyle changes around nutrition and physical activity.
"We've had the privilege of working in Hounslow for the past year, our team have delivered services, undertaken insight work within the local community, and built networks with local organisations and health professionals.
"This fantastic groundwork has given us a clearer picture of what people want, and how we can provide effective support for the people of Hounslow."
