Healthy Hub provides coronavirus support in North Herts

PR Date: Tuesday, 31 March 2020 - 3:00pm

North Hertfordshire District Council (NHDC) has tailored its Healthy Hub service to provide residents with information, advice and support in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Since its launch in January 2020, residents in the district have been accessing a range of local wellbeing and support services through this Hertfordshire County Council funded service.

However, with the recent outbreak of coronavirus, the Healthy Hub is now focusing on providing specific advice and support to residents during this challenging time.

This will include how to:

  • Stay mentally well and physically active whilst staying at home
  • Access essential items such as food/medication
  • Stay socially connected
  • Entertain and engage children
  • Volunteer your support

You can contact the Healthy Hub on 01462 474111 (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm), by email: healthyhub@north-herts.gov.uk or access their website at www.healthyhubnorthherts.co.uk  

Cllr Judi Billing, NHDC’s Executive Member for Community Engagement said: “It’s a really worrying time for everyone, so please remember that if you need help, you are not alone. The knowledgeable Healthy Hub team can offer tips and advice about how to cope, direct you towards any support you may need and let you know how you can volunteer to help others, so do get in touch with them and they will be very happy to listen and help.”
