Residents of West Mendip can join the free six-week Habits for Health program, focusing on wellbeing.

People across West Mendip are being invited to take part in Habits for Health, a free six‑week programme designed to help local residents make small changes that support everyday wellbeing. 

Each week the session focuses on a different aspect of health and wellbeing, from sleep and movement to emotional wellbeing, healthier eating, and connecting with others. The sessions aim to help people explore ways to feel better, move more, and build confidence in making positive lifestyle changes at their own pace. 

The programme is open to anyone registered with a practice in the West Mendip Primary Care Network (PCN), a collaboration of local GP practices working together to provide additional health and wellbeing services for our community. The network is made up of Glastonbury Health Centre, Glastonbury Surgery, Wells City Practice, Wells Health Centre and Vine Surgery Partnership. 

Designed in partnership with Health Connections Mendip, the programme is delivered locally by West Mendip PCN staff and rotates across community venues in Wells, Street and Glastonbury, reflecting the ongoing collaboration between neighbourhood teams and community spaces to improve access to support in familiar, welcoming settings. The upcoming programme will run at The Portway Annexe in Wells from 4th March to 8th April, with further dates for Glastonbury and Street to be released soon. 

Next programme:  

Wednesdays, 4th March to 8th April, 1:00pm–2:30pm at The Portway Annexe, Wells
