Healthwatch Herefordshire are offering Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Awareness training around the county in the hope that people across the county attend to spread have the knowledge to share with their colleagues, friends, community and their families with the aim in increasing the uptake in screening for cancers and reducing the incidence of cardiovascular disease in Herefordshire.
To do this they have created a brand new role called Community Health Champions and they are excited to invite you to join them for their upcoming Community Health Champion Training session!
This training will equip you with the knowledge and skills to make a real difference in your community by promoting awareness of cancer and cardiovascular disease, prevention strategies, and early diagnosis. They hope that you may choose to utilise this training by also joining them around the county on their Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Prevention Roadshow to talk to the community and raise awareness, but this is not a requirement of the training.
Here’s what’s in store at the training:
– Discover why screening and prevention for cancer and cardiovascular diseases are essential to help increase early detection!
– Learn how to spot signs and symptoms early—because the sooner we act, the better!
– Pick up key facts about the local population and tips on how to connect with your community, spread the word, and tackle any barriers together.
