This grants programme is funded by the Greater Manchester Integrated Care Partnership (GMICP) to support people from communities of identity or experience, based in Greater Manchester (including Glossop), to improve their mental wellbeing.
This programme aims to support GMICP’s 2023-2028 strategy which sets out how they will work together to improve the health of people across Greater Manchester, through the partnership.
Evidence shows that there are steps that can be taken to improve mental health and wellbeing. As part of this programme, we are encouraging organisations to think creatively about how the ‘Five Ways to Wellbeing’ could be used to support people. These include connecting with others, getting active, mindfulness, learning new things and giving to others.
