Healthy Connections Project

Here at LD:NorthEast we work hard to bring people together. We tackle isolation and feelings of loneliness by supporting people to have fun, spend time with friends and feel good about themselves by looking after their health & wellbeing.

Sport and physical activity are a great way of bringing people together. Our Healthy Connections project is designed for people to build social connections and confidence through a regular programme of sports activities and to support manage their own health by overcoming barriers people with a learning disability often face.

Tackling health inequalities is a key priority to us, we are delighted to deliver this program in North Tyneside.
