Housing, health and care programme - Amber Gill

Meet Amber Gill, social prescriber link worker for First Contact Clinical. Amber tells us about the coaching and mentoring offered in South Tyneside to encourage members of the community to make healthy changes to their lives.

In the North East and North Cumbria we have established a Housing, Health, and Care Programme to build on the collaborative work already underway across our region to tackle and mobilise on this important issue.

Our programme is the region's sector led improvement initiative focused on delivering better, more integrated housing, care, and support so that people can be healthy, live well, and stay independent in their own home.

The programme has been co-created by the North East branch of the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS), the NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, the Northern Housing Consortium, and the TEC Services Association (TSA); with many other partners involved too.
