With the health and wellbeing of our ageing population at an all-time low and pressures ever increasing on the NHS and local government health & social care budgets, Active Families North East have developed an innovative service-based solution dedicated to tackling the health and social inequalities that exist for many vulnerable older people within our region.We have built on the success and impact of our work during the last 12 months thanks to support through the UKRI Healthy Ageing Social Venture Competition, which also included an independent evaluation from Un Ltd's Healthy Ageing Team. This has helped to not only demonstrate the success and impact of the concept but provide the foundations and insight to assist with scaling up the intervention and roll out an improved version of the intervention across a great geographical footprint.The Well Bean Machines involve adopting a place-based approach to provide an innovative outreach service to streets and neighbourhoods with high densities of vulnerable older people, many of whom are living in poverty. This includes a multi-faceted approach to the engagement, connection, activation and support of older people with a focus on improving and sustaining physical and social activity levels which ultimately contributes towards having a positive impact on their health and wellbeing.Our mobile well-'bean' branded electric vans contain a range of equipment to deliver low intensity exercises, equipment, health assessment tools, fold up seats, wellbeing information packs and a tea/coffee dispensing machine. Having the ability to serve refreshments from the vans is a great way to facilitate discussion and develop social bonds between individuals both before and after taking part in innovative and alternative physical activity sessions. We will also offer health assessments, provide free resources and information to take away such as our Active Forever DVD, USB sticks, home equipment packs and tea towels with easy to complete exercises printed on them.The Well Bean Machines will be driven by our highly qualified and empathetic staff that will undertake a door knocking service in the weeks prior to sessions being delivered, talking to older residents, promoting the project and providing guidance and advice in relation to improving health. We will also recruit and train an army of 50 years + community champions that will be encouraged to take ownership of the project, enthusing other older people to engage with the programme, and assist (or eventually lead) sessions after the funding ceases.

随着我们老龄化人口的健康和福祉处于历史最低水平，NHS和地方政府卫生和社会保健预算的压力不断增加，东北部的活跃家庭开发了一种创新的服务-我们致力于解决本地区许多弱势老年人面临的健康和社会不平等问题。我们在过去12个月工作取得成功并产生影响的基础上，感谢UKRI健康老龄化社会创业大赛的支持，其中还包括联合国有限公司健康老龄化团队的独立评估。这不仅有助于展示这一概念的成功和影响，而且为协助扩大干预规模提供了基础和洞察力，并在很大的地理范围内推出了一个改进的干预版本。Well Bean Machines涉及采用基于地点的方法，为弱势老年人密度高的街道和社区提供创新的外展服务，其中许多人生活在贫困之中。这包括一个多方面的方法来参与，连接，激活和支持老年人，重点是提高和维持身体和社会活动水平，最终有助于对他们的健康和福祉产生积极的影响。我们的移动的well-'bean'品牌电动面包车包含一系列设备，提供低强度的锻炼，设备，健康评估工具，折叠座椅，健康信息包和茶/咖啡分配机。有能力从货车上提供茶点是一个很好的方式，以促进讨论和发展个人之间的社会纽带之前和之后参加创新和替代体育活动会议。我们还将提供健康评估，提供免费的资源和信息，如我们的Active Forever DVD，USB记忆棒，家庭设备包和茶巾，上面印有易于完成的练习。Well Bean Machines将由我们高素质和富有同情心的工作人员驾驶，他们将在课程交付前几周进行敲门服务，与老年居民交谈，促进该项目并提供与改善健康有关的指导和建议。我们还将招募和培训一支由50年以上社区冠军组成的军队，鼓励他们拥有该项目的所有权，热情地鼓励其他老年人参与该计划，并在资金停止后协助（或最终领导）会议。
