Mearns and Coastal Healthy Living Network
Improving the health of older people
What we do
Project background
There has been a Healthy Living Network for older people in the Mearns since 2002.
We are a voluntary organisation funded by a range of sources, including grants from Lloyds TSB, the Robertson Trust, the Allen Lane Foundation, KMAP and Aberdeenshire Council.
We work in partnership with statutory and voluntary organisations and most particularly with community groups to improve the health of older people.
