The annual Spring into Spring health and wellbeing roadshow is back in Blackpool this month, with a string of community events in and around the town.

The popular showcase of local services and community groups will take place over six days, and offer a chance for local residents to experience and find out more about what’s on offer on their doorstep.

Spring into Spring is organised by the Blackpool Place Based Partnership, which includes NHS, local authority and voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) sector organisations.

Karen Smith, director of health and care integration, said: “This year, we are taking Spring into Spring to more local communities than ever before.

“It’s always a popular event, and the roadshow-style format allows us to reach more people and show off all the great services, activities and support that are available locally.

“There are various health checks and taster sessions, and people may even find a new activity or group to join.”

“The aim is to help you find out more about the many different places to go and things to do in Blackpool so that you may find something that makes you feel connected and supports your wellbeing. At the same time, we will also be highlighting all the services and offers of local support that are available to enable you to take advantage of the great opportunities across the town, celebrating and meeting with the different communities that live here.”
