Lifestyle Wellbeing

Stopping smoking, reducing your alcohol intake, losing weight and taking more exercise are just some ways to help ensure that you maintain a healthy lifestyle. One You and LiveWell are two great resources that can help you achieve this, along with some further local resources below.

Now is the right time to quit. Every cigarette causes you real harm and quitting smoking is healthier for you and your family. There's lots of free support to help you quit now.

Like to unwind with a glass of something in the evening? If you're not careful it's easy for the occasional glass in the evening to quickly become 2 or 3 glasses most days. Men and women are advised not to drink more than 14 units of alcohol a week. This is the same as 6 pints of average strength beer a week. Regularly drinking more than this can increase the risk to your health. It's important to know how much you are drinking and the easy ways you can cut back.

What you eat, and how much, is important for your health and your waistline. Choosing healthier foods is easier than you might think. There are lots of cheap and tasty ways you and your family can eat well daily.

Fitting some physical activity into your day is easier than you think. Being active is really good for your body, mind and health – and there are lots of easy ways you and your family can get moving!
