Activities

'It carries out activities or services itself'

'the advancement of health'

PCHP supports and enables local people to take steps to improve their own health and create a healthy community and environment We are rooted in the community and have always worked using a community development approach to tackle ill health in the area. It is a process that includes: • Promoting learning, knowledge, skills, confidence and the ability to act collectively • Taking positive action to address inequalities in power, access and participation • Strengthening organisation, networking and leadership with and between communities • Working for change through increased local democracy, participation and involvement in public affairs We use the social model of health – looking at how health is affected by everyday life such as political, social, economic, environmental and cultural factors. These shape the conditions in which we are born, grow, live, work and age.
