Making Every Contact Count (MECC) is about making the most of opportunities to make a difference to people’s health and wellbeing. By supporting people to make changes to their lifestyle it is possible to prevent ill-health, improve health and wellbeing and reduce health inequalities.
MECC is an approach to behaviour change that uses the day to day interactions that organisations and individuals already have with other people to support them in making positive changes to their lifestyle, health and wellbeing.
MECC Healthy Conversation Skills training develops & enhances the skills of staff to deliver health improving conversations and empower people to make positive steps towards behavioural change.
