MAKING Warwickshire fit for the future is the aim of council health chiefs.
Adults who live, work, study, or are registered with a GP in Warwickshire are being urged to share their views about the county’s healthy lifestyle services.
Warwickshire County Council currently commissions an Integrated Lifestyle Service known as Fitter Futures Warwickshire, which encourages and supports residents to lead healthier lifestyles.
The services, which include NHS health checks, weight management and stop smoking services. are designed to support residents in making positive lifestyle changes to improve their overall health and wellbeing.
Warwickshire residents aged 18 years and above are invited to share their views about what the future of these services should look like in The Healthy Lifestyle Services Survey online at ask.warwickshire.gov.uk/bi/healthylifestyle-public.
For those working as health, social care, community, or voluntary sector professionals, an alternative version of the survey to share views from an occupational perspective is available at ask.warwickshire.gov.uk/bi/healthylifestyles-professionals.
Both versions of the survey will close on September 7. Those requiring help with accessing or completing the survey, or to receive the survey in alternative formats such as a paper copy, should email [email protected] or call 01926 731484.
The Healthy Lifestyle Services Survey for Warwickshire will gather feedback to help shape the future of the lifestyle services.
WCC health spokeswoman Coun Anne-Marie Sonko said: “It’s important to make sure our healthy lifestyle services are meeting the needs of people in local communities across the county, as well as delivering a positive impact, especially for those facing the biggest health challenges.
“I encourage everyone who is eligible to share their feedback, as this will help us to make informed decisions about how we invest in, and deliver, these services going forward, helping everyone across the county to lead happier, healthier, and more independent lives.”
