Forthcoming Targeting Health Outcomes Training

Report by: Nancy Brown

Our projects improve health through lots of different activities and we want to give them the health knowledge to make the projects sustainable, so I am really excited about the new training that will be taking place over November - Febraury, which we designed with MMU's Health and Wellbeing Academy for our projects and other organisations.

I commissioned this course, and allocated a substaintial amount of our training budget to it, because there are no other course I know of which are sepcifically designed for third sector organisations to give them this knowledge and enable them to speak to health commissioners in their own language.

There are 3 sessions:
Session 1 focuses on how health affects people and what affects health.
Session 2 looks at how behaviour is changed to improve the health of service users.
Session 3 will cover pitching to funders and commissioners in their own language and what evidence will be needed to show the benefit of activities delivered.

We'll also be looking for a guest blogger to tell us what they think here, so let us know if you're interested in writing a few posts.
