Get free health and wellbeing support in Goole today

Our YOURhealth service have partnered up with Cygnet Primary Care Network (PCN) to provide personal support and motivation with changing behaviours and help reduce the risk of long-term health conditions.

Patients registered with one of Cygnet PCN’s five GP practices, in Goole and the surrounding areas, can self-refer into the our health and wellbeing service to receive free one-to-one support.

The health and wellbeing support is designed to help you set achievable goals, overcome barriers, and develop a personal plan to make positive changes for the long term. It is therefore an opportunity to tailor the support to you and your individual needs.

Once your referral is accepted, our YOURhealth service’s coaching team will spend up to an hour with you at each meeting, and can meet with you weekly or fortnightly, in a way that works around your life.

Some of the topics the team cover include:

• Healthy eating
• Weight management
• Alcohol support
• Sleep Hygiene
• NHS Health Checks
• Group support, coming soon
• and much more

Ryan Nicholls, Team Leader at YOURhealth, said:

“All our team members are friendly, approachable, and supportive experts in their field. They are on hand to support you to make positive changes in your life when you need it most.

We’re pleased to be working with Cygnet PCN and their patients on this new initiative and look forward to showing local people how health and wellbeing support can truly make a difference to your life.”
