NEE: Live Well Neighbourhoods Programme - Tendring South

What is the Live Well Neighbourhood Programme?

We are a team of health and social care professionals and voluntary and public sector organisations, working together to make a positive difference to lives of everyone living in Colchester and Tendring. We are part of the North East Essex Health & Wellbeing Alliance. 

Our Vision is:

Our Live Well Neighbourhoods

We work in 6 areas across Colchester and Tendring. Our Live Well Neighbourhood in Tendring South covers: 

Improving Health and Wellbeing 

There are many factors which have an impact on your health and wellbeing. Some of these factors relate to our local area, such as: the local environment including housing and access to green spaces, access to health care, availability of local transport, education and employment. 

Other factors which impact our health and wellbeing include our behaviours (for example how much we exercise) and our genetics (for example our family history of health conditions or our ethnicity) can also have an impact on our health and wellbeing. 

These factors can either have a positive or negative impact on your health and wellbeing.

We aim to prevent future ill health, and improve wellbeing, by reducing the negative impact of these factors, so that you can live well.
