Practice Health Champions

Our Practice Health Champions

Ashville Surgery is proud to work alongside a fantastic group of volunteer Health Champions – patients who give their time to run a variety of wellbeing activities each week. These groups are a great way for patients to connect, get active, and support their overall health.

Here’s what’s on offer:

  • Board game group – Thursday, 1.30 – 3.30pm
  • Gardening group – Tuesday, 1 – 3pm
  • Over 65 men’s gym group – Wednesday, 11 – 12noon
  • Over 55 women’s gym group – Wednesday, 1 – 2pm
  • Walking group – Thursday, 11am

The link for the referral form is below, once submitted, it is sent directly to the secretarial team who will communicate patient details to the health champion who runs the group to contact the patient https://forms.office.com/e/Xz2eDnhG7P

Patients can also turn up to the groups at the times above.

BBC Radio Manchester – make a difference award 2024

Rob Williamson, one of our dedicated Practice Health Champions, has been nominated and shortlisted from hundreds of entries for “The Green Award,” which recognises individuals or groups who make their communities more environmentally friendly and supportive of nature. Rob has dedicated this nomination to all the Practice Health Champions at Ashville Surgery for their outstanding contributions in creating the beautiful garden space. This recognition is a testament to the collective efforts and hard work of the entire team.

 

We didn’t win, but truly, everyone in that room was a winner. We were up against two other incredibly deserving nominations. It’s been such a wonderful evening, and I couldn’t be prouder to have been there with Rob, Jane, and Robs lovey wife Jose for the amazing award ceremony. Well done to everyone! This recognition is all down to the incredible work you and all the other health champions do for Ashville and the community. Well done, everyone!
