The Moving Forward Together project aimed, to build on this foundation and go further, with the objective to work with disabled people and people with long term conditions to plan, manage and deliver services at places where resources do not exist yet, as well as to support people to make best use of existing activities.<\/p>\n<p>Over the five year funding period, Grampian Opportunities was involved both in individual and community building as well. Through their work, they supported people to take up volunteering or in gaining employment, along with increasing people\u2019s knowledge, skills and understanding of life skills, education and other fields. By creating more community activities where none existed, the project also improved connections between information, service providers and individuals, enhancing community capacity building.<\/p>\n<p>From the variety of engagements the project provided, a large number of individuals received support and could choose self management activities that suit them best. From health and wellbeing activities such as strengths and balance exercises or wellbeing taster sessions, through craft groups and life skills group, to healthy working lives and discussion groups, the Moving Forward Together project really allowed people to \u2018be in the driving seat\u2019 regarding their condition.<\/p>\n<p>During the COVID-19 pandemic, the project moved online and focused on maintaining service and good communication channels to ensure the wellbeing of people involved with the project, including staff. Engagements reduced social isolation and lack of community activities, as well as, through a Community Food Larder, helped those in need receive vital food supply.<\/p>\n<p>This summary is by no means exhaustive of all the fantastic self management engagements and projects Grampian Opportunities undertook during their five years of funding.
