SALC is working with Somerset Council Public Health, and other partners, to help support the County’s City, Town and Parish Councils to actively engage in, and deliver, community health & wellbeing projects.
Health & Wellbeing is a broad subject area with many possible activity proposals. The eleven headings are an indication of the kind of factors that can have an impact on people’s physical and mental health as well as a sense of wellbeing and belonging.
You know your community best so your councils are best placed to deliver projects that address any inequality related to these factors.
Engage: If needed, we can help you to communicate with residents and identify community needs.
Collaborate: Actively work with your local groups and charities to develop innovative projects.
Partner: Connect with other Councils, your Local Community Network (LCN) and county providers to develop wider projects.
Apply for Grants: Please note we are currently in a grant pause period. A fresh grant application round with new parameters and funding levels will be launched in late May/ early June. In the meantime, please get in touch if you would like to discuss your ideas.
Plan for the Future: Consider long-term sustainability when designing projects to ensure lasting impact.
