About CHLC


TheCornwall Healthy Living Centre (CHLC) represents a merger of Kerrier Healthy Living Centre (KHLC) and Penwith Healthy Living Network (PHLN).

Both the KHLC and the PHLN were Lottery funded organisations working to reduce health inequalities across West Cornwall and both were highly successful in reaching the most vulnerable members of society.

The CHLC enables the experience and expertise built up over the past three years to be developed and extended into new services. The four schemes within the CHLC compliment each other well and combine to form a comprehensive support package and promotional forum for community health and well-being projects.

CHLC is funded by:

    Big Lottery Fund
    Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Primary Care Trust Cornwall Council
