Public Health Gibraltar proudly attended a concert organised by the PAAMOA Community Choir and the Calpe Band. It is a great initiative which encourages our more mature population to join a choir or to learn an instrument. Music is great for the soul, and helps with mental health issues, especially for those people who are isolated. It's never to late to learn, so if you are interested contact PAAMOA or the Calpe Band to join.

“Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve, their health” (World Health Organisation)
Health promotion extends beyond individual behaviours and encourages the wider community to help address the many influences that affect our population health. A large part of the health promotion role is providing information and education to ensure people have the knowledge they need to make healthy choices.
What does the Health Promotion Department in Gibraltar do?
The unit works mainly, although not exclusively, with professionals in the health service, education, community, and the voluntary sector to ensure the implementation of identified health and social policy directives. The unit adopts a partnership approach across all sectors with the aim of inciting positive health behaviour. Core functions include:
•Health education, awareness and training
•Developing health resources
•Monitoring the trajectory of global health
•Initiation, management and evaluation of specific health projects
•Providing advice, information, resources and support to anyone involved in health promotion activity.
