Healthy Living

This online learning module has been developed in conjunction with social housing organisations to help an individual adopt a healthier lifestyle. Health is generally defined as being a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease.  Whilst we may not always experience complete wellbeing throughout all our lives, we can look at how we live on a day-to-day basis to see whether changes can be made to make our lives healthier.  By establishing good habits now you will be able to reap the benefits of a healthier lifestyle.
