We have secured Big Lottery Funding (2012-2017) from the Reaching Communities programme to build on our successful first project offering health education to adults from a wide range of backgrounds in Stoke-on-Trent. 

CHEST project activities aim to improve health and wellbeing of people by reducing levels of obesity (as well as the risk of chronic illnesses like coronary heart disease, stroke and diabetes), improving confidence to access public health service provision and promoting healthy lifestyle changes through preventative health education programmes. The Big Lottery Reaching Communities Programme co-funds the CHEST project and we have received funding and support from Stoke- on-Trent NHS and City Council.
