#TryAToolTuesday. There is a graphic of a calendar and inside reads 'March 2024 roundup'. Then below this is a graphic of a person in a wheelchair and then a hand holding a smart phone.

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 March we shared four different apps, tools and resources. Why not check them out?

  • Blethr – A ‘Listeningbot’ and a safe space where you can talk freely and openly about what’s on your mind without fear of being judged or told what you to do. More info here.  
  • NHS Near Me – A video consulting service that enables people to attend appointments from home or wherever is convenient. More info here.
  • SafeSpot – An app for that promotes positive mental wellbeing in children and young people by helping them improve their coping skills. More info here.  
  • The Cancer app – An app which features information specific to twelve different cancer types. More info here.

Tried one of these tools? Give us a shout on X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, LinkedIn or email at dhcscot@alliance-scotland.co.uk with your thoughts. We’d love to hear from you.

If you would like to learn about more digital tools, search #TryAToolTuesday on X (formerly Twitter) for previous months!

This initiative is part of the Discover Digital project at the ALLIANCE, more information here.
