Thrive Tribe partner with Nottingham City Council to deliver a new, free health and wellbeing service.

March 20, 2024

Residents in Nottingham will soon benefit from a fresh new health and wellbeing service from healthy experts Thrive Tribe.

Thriving Nottingham will offer a holistic one-stop shop for city residents, consolidating diverse health and wellbeing provisions into one central platform.

Launching on Tuesday 2 April, Thriving Nottingham will support adults, children and families for the next five years with weight management using behaviour change programmes by gloji, MAN v FAT and Slimming World, as well as offering support with smoking cessation, community-based physical activity options and personalised 1-to-1 health coaching. Individuals will begin their journey with a 360-health assessment to help them find the most beneficial provision.

The Nottingham service is the latest addition to Thrive Tribe’s growing range of public health offerings delivering healthy lifestyle services across the UK to help thousands of people each year to improve their physical and mental wellbeing.

Lucy Hubber, Director of Public Health at Nottingham City Council said:

"People in Nottingham have poorer health outcomes than in other similar areas. We are therefore thrilled to partner with Thrive Tribe to bring to life our vision of a new health and wellbeing offer for Nottingham residents from April 2024. The new service, Thriving Nottingham, will consider the physical, mental, social, and emotional aspects of health and wellbeing. This service will help meet the diverse needs of our communities and recognise that health behaviours are complex and rarely occur in isolation. We look forward to working with Thrive Tribe to ensure Thriving Nottingham becomes a trusted and well-used service for all of our communities and a service that improves the lives of all of Nottingham City residents.

Cllr Woodings, Portfolio Holder for Adult Social Care & Health at Nottingham City Council added:

"Thrive Tribe's record of success in supporting communities to live healthier, happier lives makes them the perfect partner for Nottingham. By listening to the needs of individuals and focussing on sustainable behaviour change, the ‘Thriving Nottingham’ campaign will be instrumental in tackling our city's specific health and wellbeing challenges. We will be working in partnership with Thrive Tribe to co-design the service with input from our residents and local partner organisations, ensuring it reflects their needs and helps them to create healthier communities."

Tim Roberts, Chief Executive Officer of Thrive Tribe said:

“We’re thrilled to be launching Thriving Nottingham in partnership with Nottingham City Council. Lifestyle related issues such as smoking and obesity are more prevalent in Nottingham than many other similar cities, causing a wide range of preventable health conditions. We’ll introduce a range of programmes across the city, empowering residents to change their behaviours and thrive.”

Andy Emerson, Thrive Tribe’s Director of Operations added:

“We’re particularly excited to be working with Public Health, the Integrated Care Board, Primary / Secondary Care and other healthcare professionals to embed the service delivery model across the City of Nottingham. We’re aware of the importance of being awarded the first Integrated Wellbeing Health Service in the City of Nottingham, we understand what opportunities this presents and are looking forward to working with embedded community assets on developing our service together. Watch out for our series of informational webinars that we’re delivering throughout April and May to learn more.”
