• Appropriate support services if required
• Improve feelings of social isolation
• Improve communication with health and social care providers

The service is delivered in either community settings, including GP surgeries and Leisure Centres, or for those that prefer, a byte-size Breeze course is available at a distance, with all contact by telephone or online conference calls (Zoom).
