Live Life Well are excited to announce the relaunch of our Sunderland Health Champion programme for 2022 and have made a few changes. The programme is split into 2 options as described below:
Health Champions
As a Health Champion, we just ask that you cascade health messages from the Health Champions Team to your networks. You’ll also receive a monthly newsletter and have the chance to participate in “optional” quarterly network meetings.
Advanced Health Champions
For those who wish to become an Advanced Health Champion, we request that you complete 3 core training modules –
- Royal Society of Public Health (RSPH) Understanding Health Improvement – Level 2
- Making Every Contact Count (MECC) Smoking Brief Intervention
- Making Every Contact Count (MECC) Alcohol Brief Intervention
After completion, you become an Advanced Health Champion and gain a certificate. As an Advanced Health Champion, you can then also select other optional “bolt on” training modules such as Mental Health, Healthy Weight & Financial Resilience. All training is free of charge. There is also an opportunity to volunteer at events with the Health Champions Team or to access more advanced training further down the line. To sign up please complete a registration form via the link below:
