Health & Wellbeing
One Vision Housing exists to support our customers and encourage ideas and initiatives that will make our communities better places to live and work.
That is why we employ a Health Promotion Officer to promote and increase health and wellbeing throughout our workforce and the communities in which we operate. This post is part funded by Sefton NHS which also provides us with advice, support and information tailored to our customers needs.
Through consultation with our customers and local agencies we offer a variety of activities that can help you improve your health and wellbeing, such as:
- Cooking On a budget, learning to cook on a low budget using healthy ingredients to help combat chronic heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity. Also education on salts, sugars, and fats and how to use less and still enjoy food
- Exercise sessions in the community for all age groups such as cheerleading, aerobics, men’s health projects and circuit training
- Sessions on weight management to help aid weight loss
- Walking and cycling in the community
- Chair based classes for the elderly
- Holistic therapies
- Health events
- Discount gym memberships for staff
- And much more!!!!!
