“I’ve been sent a website with details of provision for different health organisations around Leeds. Looks really detailed and could be great for signposting”
The website is http://www.mecclink.co.uk/ and is aimed at health professionals who want to help the people they meet to live healthier lives by providing simple information, ideas for conversations, and things people can do to look after themselves a bit better.
or, in the words of the website (gotta love the NHS and their jargon)
