It’s Wellbeing Wednesday!

Today’s top tip: Stretch your body every day! 🧘‍🤸‍♀️

Daily stretching helps keep your muscles flexible, reduces stiffness, improves circulation, and can even ease stress. It is especially helpful if you spend a lot of time sitting, standing, or doing repetitive tasks.

You don’t need a full routine, just a few gentle stretches in the morning, during breaks, or before bed can make a big difference. Listen to your body and stretch within your comfort zone.

When do you like to stretch most, morning, daytime, or evening? Let us know in the comments 👇

🌟 It’s Wellbeing Wednesday! 🌟

Today’s top tip: Spend less time in front of the TV or at the very least get up and move during ad breaks! 📺➡️🚶‍♂️

It is easy to stay glued to the screen, but even short bursts of movement can make a real difference to your health.
Standing up, stretching, walking around, or doing a few simple exercises during ad breaks helps improve circulation, boost energy, and reduce stiffness.

You don’t need a full workout, just keep your body moving where you can. Small changes add up!

What’s your go-to ad break activity? Let us know in the comments 👇

We are really pleased to share some positive news for the year ahead.

Community Medics has been awarded a micro-grant from the GM=EqAL Live Well Fund 2025–2026, through the Inclusion and Wellbeing Partnership Fund.

This funding will enable us to deliver pop up wellbeing and life saving skills sessions for LGBTQ+ young people across Greater Manchester. These sessions are designed to provide a safe, supportive space where young people can connect, build confidence, and learn practical skills that genuinely make a difference, from basic first aid awareness through to wider wellbeing conversations.

We are aiming to deliver sessions as a minimum in Bury, Wigan, and Stockport.
We warmly welcome youth groups and organisations supporting LGBTQ+ young people in these boroughs to get in touch. Groups from other Greater Manchester boroughs are also encouraged to reach out, we would love to explore how we can work together.

This project reflects our ongoing commitment to inclusion, wellbeing, and equipping communities with practical skills that save lives.

If you support or work with LGBTQ+ young people and would like to find out more, the team coordinating these sessions can be contacted at:
Community@communitymedics.co.uk

Thank you to everyone who continues to support our work, we are excited to see the impact this will have over the coming year.

It’s Wellbeing Wednesday!

Today’s top tip: Do something fun every day! 🎉

Looking after your wellbeing isn’t all about routines and responsibilities, making time for fun matters too.
Whether it is a hobby you love, a laugh with friends, listening to music, being creative, or just taking a moment to enjoy something small, fun helps reduce stress and lift your mood.

It doesn’t have to be big or expensive, just something that makes you smile.

What is one fun thing you’ve done today (or plan to do)? Share it in the comments 👇

We want your views — help shape something new in your community

Community Medics CIC is exploring the idea of creating Community Health & Wellbeing Hubs across Greater Manchester. These would be friendly, local drop-in spaces where people can connect, have a chat, access early wellbeing support, and be signposted to local services.

Before we take this any further, we want to hear directly from you.

We’ve created a short, anonymous survey to help us understand:
• What support people need in their local area
• What would make a wellbeing hub feel useful, safe, and welcoming
• Whether you, or someone you care for, would use a service like this

Your feedback will directly influence how this project is shaped — including where it runs and what it offers.

The survey takes around 5 minutes to complete
Open to anyone living in Greater Manchester
All responses are anonymous

Complete the survey here:
https://forms.office.com/e/xyr0CjAFGB

Please feel free to share this with friends, family, and local groups. The more voices we hear, the better we can design something that truly works_toggle for our communities.

Thank you for helping us shape what comes next.

Looking Back at 2025… and Looking Ahead to 2026

As 2025 closes, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on what our Community Engagement team achieved last year.

📊 In 2025:
• ✅ 17 free CPR awareness sessions delivered
• 👥 1,976 people trained
• 💙 Countless conversations about confidence, action, and saving lives

Every session delivered this year helped someone learn what to do in a cardiac emergency, often for the first time. That impact matters.

But were not stopping there.

🔥 Our bold goal for 2026:
👉 10,000 people across Greater Manchester trained in CPR

In 2026, we are expanding our free CPR awareness sessions even further — working with:
• Schools & colleges
• Youth clubs
• Community & faith groups
• Sports and social clubs
• Community events & open days

If you have a group of people who would like to learn CPR for free, we’d love to hear from you.

Request a free CPR session here:
https://www.communitymedics.co.uk/freecprsession

Our sessions are delivered by trained volunteers, and flexibility with dates and times helps us reach as many groups as possible.

Thank you to everyone who welcomed us into their community in 2025, let’s make 2026 even bigger
Be part of the 10,000.
