Health Trainer programme in Hackney and the City

Health Trainers are now available in the community across Hackney and the City to support you to take realistic and practical steps to improve your wellbeing.

We can help you make that lasting difference; we will help you turn your dreams into goals and your goals into actions. Amongst other things, we can offer you a holistic way of thinking about your health and wellbeing, and link you into a wide range of opportunities.

We work out in the community in partnership with local organisations – this is so we can really reach people who will benefit most from what we have to offer. We will work in partnership with Hackney Homes, TRAs (tenants’ and residents’ associations), and other community based organisations.

The health trainers based at Shoreditch Spa can offer support to anyone over the age of 16 who wants to make positive changes to their lifestyle. We have specialist health trainers working in the Charedi community as well as the Turkish and Kurdish communities.

Hoxton Health has health trainers specialised to support people over the age of 65.

Health Trainers are free to residents of Hackney and the City and you can refer yourself by calling one of the numbers below.

We will also be developing referral relationships with health service professionals such as GPs and pharmacists.
