Deputy Leader and Executive Member for Health, Councillor David Bill said:

Our health and wellbeing is constantly being stretched in these difficult times and this booklet offers practical assistance for the whole family, from the very young to those who remain at home continuing to shield.  

Keeping our mind and body active, looking after our diet and taking care of each is a priority and whilst currently we do not have easy access to gyms, exercise classes and some residents may not even be able to leave their home this booklet offers a wide range of guidance and support. I would urge residents to request a copy or when visiting any of the vaccination centres across the borough to pick one up. Feedback so far has been extremely positive, and the booklet is being utilised by local organisations throughout the borough.
