‘Talk Speak Yell Health Event’ a huge success for Community Health Champions

Thank you to our Community Health Champions who attended the ‘Talk Speak Yell Health Event’ hosted by Ur Brum on the 30th May in Aston.

The event was a great success, and provided an opportunity for our CHCs to hand out free fruit to promote eating 5-a-day, as well as chat with young people about their general health and well-being.  It is really fantastic for the CHCs to be out in the community together, engaging with people and passing on health messages, and we are very grateful for the time and energy they put into such events.

The event was part of the Community Cohesion City wide Programme that is delivered by the Community Development Workers. Its funded and supported by Birmingham Mind, Common Unity, BVSC, Freshwinds, Public Health and the Joint Commissioning Team.

If you are interested in becoming a Community Health Champion or would like to attend similar events in future, please contact chc@freshwinds.org.uk.
