Building Choices within Our Community
Healthy Living Bucks is a community-led service, aiming to build opportunities that support the development of individuals and groups in Buckinghamshire. We believe in fairness, respect, support and an open and honest approach.
Community Spirit
We all live side by side, but it is only when we come together that we really get to know each other and form a true community.
As a community, we can support each other, share ideas and make friends. We can take part in new activities and discover things we never knew we were good at. Community spirit makes everyday life easier and more enjoyable for everyone. By working as a group, we believe we can all gain the confidence, skills and strength to live a fuller life.
We can achieve so much more when we are in good health. As such, The Healthy Living Bucks is passionate about encouraging everyone in our community to eat well, get active and gain a positive outlook in fun ways. We offer an extensive range of activities for all age groups and would love to welcome you along.
What would you like to see in your community? We’re actively developing our services and welcome your suggestions.

Winter Fayre
Thank you to all the visitors, stall holders, staff and Santa who attended the Winter Fayre on Saturday 1 December. It was lovely to see the children having a wonderful time and we all feel a little more festive now! Why not come along to one of our other seasonal events this month:
Christmas Lunch
A two-course community Christmas Lunch is available to local residents on Friday 14 December for just £8.50. A choice of traditional turkey with all the trimmings or a vegetarian mushroom and brie parcel, followed by sticky toffee pudding or fresh fruit salad. Sound tempting? Come and place your order and pay a £2 deposit before Tuesday 4 December!
Festive Storytime & Song
Parents and tots are invited to join in with festive stories and songs in the Healthy Living Centre on Thursday 6th, 13th and 20th December from 1.30 – 2.15pm. There is no need to book and no charge to take part. Tea and coffee will be available if you want to stay after the session.
