On Tuesday 16 September, Healthwatch Tameside were proud to host their Community Health & Wellbeing Event. The event brought together over 30 Tameside groups and services, with residents attending from across Tameside. The day was all about sharing advice, support, and opportunities – and most importantly, connecting with each other.
From health checks and wellbeing advice to financial guidance, employability support and creative activities, there was something for everyone. Attendees had the opportunity to meet professionals and volunteers face-to-face, ask questions, and find out how to access ongoing support in their local community.
The day was a real celebration of partnership working across Tameside, with attendees able to speak directly to organisations offering advice, information, and practical help.
Cllr Tafheen Shariff was also in attendance giving her support, alongside Tameside Radio who will be doing a feature on the event on 25 September 2025.
A huge thank you to all the organisations and groups who attended and all those and to the local residents who came along. Your voices and experiences matter, and together we make a stronger, healthier community.
