Talk Community has been developed over the last two years in Herefordshire as an innovative approach to strengthen independence and wellbeing of our residents, focused in local communities.
The strategic approach was approved at the Cabinet meeting on 24 September 2020 and operational decisions were delegated to the Director of Adults and Communities in relation to implementation of the agreed approach.
This survey is to assess the community wellbeing of the residents of Herefordshire linked to the development and achievement of the County Plan, assess the impact of the 2020 flooding and covid-19 pandemic and to act as baseline data for the roll out of the Talk Community approach.
