Wellbeing Our Way Impact Report 2016

There’s increasing consensus that people and their communities need a new relationship with health and care services; one which recognises that people’s own life goals are what count, and that wellbeing and independence need to be key outcomes of care*. 

Wellbeing Our Way aims to support charities and community groups to play a significant role in this shift to person-centred, community focused care.

As Wellbeing Our Way reaches its two year milestone, this report provides a valuable opportunity to reflect on our journey to date: what’s working well, what we’ve learnt, and what’s next for Wellbeing Our Way.

It offers an overview of our activities and progress, and shares our impact as reported by those involved in the programme. Thank you to everyone who is contributing their time, commitment and experience so generously to Wellbeing Our Way, either in their role within a charity or community group, or through their lived experience.
