Healthworks Newcastle

Core membership
Silver membership

Set up in 1996 through a partnership of Newcastle University, Newcastle Primary Care Trust, Newcastle City Council and local residents, HealthWORKS was designed to engage people living in areas of low income in the management of their own health, with the objective of reducing health inequalities and promoting better health. We work to the wider determinants of health, and co-design pyscho-social approaches to improving health, alongside the clinical model. We engage and empower local people in a range of programmes which have many particular outcomes but which overall contribute to improved health literacy. We use a community development approach across all areas of our work which include: food skills, community learning, physical activity, breastfeeding peer support, Community Health Trainers, Early Years, social prescribing and volunteering. In 2014 Professor Sir Michael Marmot, a world leader on health inequalities, became our Patron. We work across his life-course model and focus on prevention and early intervention.
