A mobile wellbeing roadshow bus is out and about in the Holme and Colne Valleys in July.

This follows a successful tour last year using a bus and local facilities which was organised in the Holme Valley by Kirklees Council and its partners including the NHS and voluntary organisations. The aim was to reach as many people as possible, and in particular those people who find it difficult to be able to get to Huddersfield because of transport or health reasons.

The roadshows give people the opportunity to find out more about the services available to them and how to make contact. Staff will be on hand to discuss any issues, whether about care, health and well being or to help people check if they are receiving all the services and benefits they are entitled to.

If you want to find out about help with financial issues, help getting back to work or training, services for older people, health, or what’s available for young families then please look out for the bus on July 6 and 13 in Holme Valley South including Cinderhills, Scholes, Burnlee, Netherthong, New Mill

If you have a group meeting on any of the days the roadshow is out and about or there are a number of people in your community who would like us to call in please contact Keith Melbourne on 01484 225709 and we will do our best to fit you in.
