Last year OLIHWN funded projects throughout the Oban Lorn and Inner Isles area which helped young and old, from support services to young people ,homeless, training to build community capacity, outdoor activities and much much more.
The funding has supported projects which have a focus on wellness instead of illness to improve the health of the population. Priority given to initiatives that demonstrated reducing health inequalities, breaking down barriers to participation and which was able to demonstrate how the planned project supported delivery of our four Health Improvement Plan Priorities :
- Theme 1 – Getting the best start in life
- Theme 2 – Working to ensure fairness
- Theme 3 – Connecting people with support in their community
- Theme 4 – Focusing on Wellness not illness
