- Heritage 4 Health is a partnership between Healthy Living Centre Alliance (hlcalliance.org) and Northern Ireland Environment Link (www.nienvironmentlink.org)
Funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Heritage 4 Health is a social prescribing programme. For more information on social prescribing please follow this link to NIEL's social prescribing toolkit: nienvironmentlink.org/projects/social-prescribing-toolkit
Heritage 4 Health is designed to increase access to, and time spent on activities known to enhance individual health and wellbeing. It is widely acknowledged that being outdoors and connecting with the natural environment boosts activity levels, improves physical & mental health recovery, and enhances our overall sense of wellbeing.
Programme participants were referred through Healthy Living Centres across Northern Ireland and facilitated to help envisage their lives in the future with hope and positivity.
Feedback from participants indicates a variety of positive impacts including meeting new people, feeling better connected in the community, improved health and feeling more optimistic about life.
The management team wishes to thank everyone who contributed to the success of Heritage 4 Health including the staff, managers, volunteers, heritage partners, health partners and the inspiring participants who took a leap and gave it a go.
