Link Up To Health

Link Up is continuing to support tenants and local residents to get online with a new health and wellbeing focus.  Thanks to a grant from the Digital Pioneers Progression Fund, we have been able to expand Link Up to include The Health Agency and the Wester Hailes GP Practice as new referral partners. Link Up is helping people to connect digitally for the first time with health and social care services. The project is being delivered in partnership with WHALE who are providing the digital skills support through their Digital Inclusion Lead.

 Link Up is aimed at people who think going online might be too difficult. It helps people to connect to information, groups and services that improve their confidence and digital skills. It offers one to one support in local venues, and there is also the chance to go to local drop in support in small friendly groups. The drop in are on Mondays 1PM-3PM at WHALE Arts Centre, Thursdays 1.30PM-3.30PM at The Health Agency, and Fridays 10AM-12PM at Clovenstone Community Centre.
