Making Every Contact Count (MECC) 

Tower Hamlets Training Hub

<H2 CLASS="text-align-center">Making Every Contact Count (MECC) is about encouraging and helping people to make</H2>
<H2 CLASS="text-align-center">healthier lifestyle choices to achieve positive long-term behaviour change</H2>
Frontline staff working in Tower Hamlets have excellent relationships with their patients and service users and therefore have valuable opportunities to help them make decisions that bring positive changes to their lives. However, it is not always easy for staff to do this and they might not be aware of local services available to support the changes they want to make.
What is being offered? 
A bespoke half day training programme to support staff to develop the relevant knowledge, skills, and confidence to be able to deliver behaviour change interventions through effective conversations, resulting in signposting to relevant local services. It is about connecting with the public and using the appropriate language to do this effectively.
