Creating a Healthier Forest Heath is a challenge that Forest
Heath District Council are working with others to secure.
We act as an advocate for health provision, using education and
promotion to tackle some of the barriers to active living and
better health (e.g. affordability of services and entitlement to
benefits) with the aim of creating the seamless, timely and
accessible services people require to live healthier
lifestyles throughout all ages of their lives.
The Council is working in close partnership with other
organisations in Suffolk. WE work with Suffolk
Strategic Partnership to
Transform Suffolk, NHS Suffolk to acheive
Healthy Ambitions Suffolk and with West
Suffolk Local Strategic Partnership to acheive the vision of the
Community Strategy 2006-2016
'Making
Life Better'.
