The Health and Wellbeing Community Hub was formed in 2017 to act as a bridge between the University of Southampton, and the community of Southampton outside of the University. The Hub acts as a facilitator for these connections.
Currently the Hub is composed of 226 members and 40 organisations.
Activities include:
- Mapping the health and wellbeing landscape in the city
- Establishing strong connections between university and community
- Contributing to meetings and events related to local health and wellbeing
- Engaging the Southampton public with activities and advice for positive health and wellbeing
