Respiratory support from Citizens Advice available in practice!

On Fridays during March 2025 from 10am to 1pm at Grange Park Health Centre, Respiratory Support Link Workers from Citizens Advice will be available to our patients.

The projects primary aim is to keep people out of hospital during the winter period by providing targeted interventions and support to adults in Blackpool suffering from respiratory conditions, particularly COPD. The initiative will involve a comprehensive outreach and engagement strategy, alignment with existing respiratory and health services, and the development of community-based support networks.

The project will focus on addressing both clinical and non-clinical factors affecting respiratory health, such as food poverty and housing conditions, and will promote preventive health messaging around vaccinations, as well as collaborating with other local partners and organizations to avoid duplication of effort and offer added value, support people into existing services where there are some, and addressing unmet need if there aren’t existing services
