About

The Gwynedd Health Improvement Alliance is a multi agency group which is the driving force behind preventative health and well-being projects in Gwynedd.

The Alliance is funded via a Health Challenge Wales grant from the Welsh Assembly Government. Health Challenge Wales is the national focus of efforts to improve health and well-being. It recognises that a wide range of factors economic, social and environmental have an impact on health, so that action in all these areas can help create a healthier nation.

The Key Themes are:

  • Smoking
  • Food and nutrition
  • Physical Activity
  • Accidents and injuries
  • Alcohol misuse
  • Sexually Transmitted Infections
  • Promoting good mental health and well-being

The main aim of this website is to provide information on the above subject areas and other factors that affect health and well-being. Information will also be available on how individuals can take the challenge to improve their own health and well-being.
