Programmes
Founded in 2008, Well UK has already won major contracts in health and social care from a number of sources including the Department of Health, Department for Work & Pensions, Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills, Devon PCT and GPs.
Well UK is a social enterprise, combining a businesslike approach with a clear focus on delivering services that meet the needs of people and communities.
We secure contracts for funded programmes and work with local delivery partners to ensure that the projects within each programme are genuinely embedded in the community.
We monitor and evaluate all our programmes and projects. We are committed to developing a performance management structure to ensure that we deliver to a consistently high standard.
As well as maintaining our own standards, one of Well UK's central aims is to help develop the capacity and capabilities of our partner organisations in the community and third sector.
