Every Tuesday the Discover Digital team at the ALLIANCE shares a free and trusted digital tool that supports health and wellbeing.
The aim of #TryAToolTuesday is to raise awareness of free and trusted apps and resources to help people improve and manage their health and wellbeing.
It has been launched across ALLIANCE X (formerly Twitter), Facebook and LinkedIn.
This July we shared 5 different apps, tools and resources. Why not check them out?
myCarePod – An app that people with spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus can use to track their health and wellbeing and develop their self-management skills. More info here.
Togetherall – A free and anonymous online community available 24/7 to young people who are looking for mental health support and a sense of connection. More info here.
NHS Connect Me – A variety of services that allow you to communicate with your healthcare professional. More info here.
Clear Fear – An app which helps young people learn how to reduce their physical responses to threats or anxiety and how to change their thoughts and behaviours. More info here.
Mind Mate – An app with mental exercises, workout routines and recipes – all to keep your mind sharp and your body healthy. More info here.
