Helping you create community-led co-operative solutions to being well in rural England
Small health groups with professional support.
A Han-group is a basic unit of health and welfare co-ops, helping people be and stay well. It is made up of three or more members. Mutual, peer-to-peer support is complemented by that of doctors, nurses, physiotherapists and social workers. These professionals are collaborative partners in a community-led model of integrated health and home care services. Trained volunteers also play a role.

The views on health to which we give the greatest importance, are to change ourselves, to reach out to society and to cooperate with other people in order to enjoy a happy and active life and have a better tomorrow. On the basis of these values and views on health, we conduct our business and activities of health/nursing care and health promotion in order to promote better health in community as a whole.
