Fermoy Community Health Project continues on developing sustainable health projects for individuals and families within the community.
Youghal Community Health Project was established to develop Social inclusion Initiatives aimed at improving the Health & Wellbeing of the local community.
To provide opportunities for People within the Mallow Community to access Community Health Initiatives to improve overall health and well-being.
Looking after your wellbeing and health is supported by local active groups.
Each health project has a programme of activities and community links to empower healthy habits and support healthy choices and lifestyles.
Across our communities exist many groups and activities that support a weekly routine of social connection and friendship.
We support and create community initiatives and programmes with groups and organisations that focus on health and wellbeing
Regular group connection nurtures the value of building positive relationships and encourages a culture of community resilience and social sustainability.
The Health Action Zones and Community Health Projects are the HSE South West response to developing Community Health within specific areas across Cork City and County.
The development of the initiative provided a timely opportunity to target health inequalities. Community development principles are at the core of our work – The focus is on empowerment, involvement, consultation and participation to enhance inclusion and sustainability.
