Live Well Barnsley (Dac.22.01.2018/8)

Minutes:

Keith Dodd, Project Manager – Universal Information and Advice, was welcomed to the meeting.   

 

Members heard how Live Well Barnsley was an online resource with information of over 900 organisations providing wellbeing, care and support services.

 

The website was aimed at users to help themselves, but could also be used by council, voluntary and community sector, and NHS staff. 

 

It was noted that 900 organisations were registered, but content would be continually added to.  Entries were searchable by postcode and searches could be further refined.

 

The site was supported so information would be kept up to date, free to use and included a facility for leaving feedback.

 

A formal launch was currently being planned, and Members were asked to use, promote and give feedback on the service.  It was agreed that if posters and leaflets were forwarded, these would be circulated by Members.

 

RESOLVED that thanks be given for the update on Live Well Barnsley, and that promotional materials be forwarded when available.
