Trevethin Health Centre - Rhiannon Jones, Joanne Williams

Jo and Rhiannon have been proactive in contacting clients by encouraging, engaging, and promoting, the Smoking Cessation service which has increased referrals and active participation with the Help me Quit advisor.

19 Hills

One nomination said: "19 Hills is taking a revolutionary approach to healthcare, by not only trying to deliver as many services to patients under one roof. 

"Their holistic vision of looking at the reason require healthcare in the first place - cold homes, food poverty, poor diet, lack of employment etc, and recognising that without addressing those the patient is in a recurring cycle, looks to relieve the pressure on all the NHS and deliver a solution as opposed to a fix."
