No one left behind – The future of social connections and communities in Wales

Wednesday 11th September 2024
With Public Health Network Cymru

Social connections play a vital role in our health and wellbeing and can be a contributory factor in some people’s experience of poorer health outcomes. Changes are already happening that impact the ways we relate to each other. We live increasingly digitalised lives, our working lives are changing and changes in demographics, family composition and the way we engage with politics and our institutions mean we need to think about the challenges and opportunities ahead for our social lives, relationships, and communities. An inclusive approach to protecting and promoting social connections in a rapidly changing world is important for our future health and wellbeing.

Learning outcomes of this webinar will be:

• A better awareness of the value of social connections to health and wellbeing
• Awareness of some of the opportunities and challenges to the strength of our future social connectedness
• Knowledge about some practical approaches to supporting inclusion and improved social connection.
