AN informal drop-in project to improve the health and well-being of school children has opened.
The Health Zone is a project designed to help Year 5 and 6 pupils of West Cornforth Primary School learn about health and get emotional help.
The project is the result of a partnership between the school, Cornforth Partnership, Primary Care and Cornforth Medical Service.
The Health Zone is a dedicated site within the primary school that has been designed by young people for young people. There is an activity room, a relaxation room where pupils can get one-to-one support and advice.
It is staffed on a voluntary basis by a youth worker, teachers and nurses and is open Monday and Thursday lunchtimes.
