The Pluss’ Engage Somerset project is drawing to a close, so we were keen to hear from some of the people involved.
Residents in three Somerset towns; Chard, Highbridge and Glastonbury, were among the first to benefit from the Engage Somerset wellbeing initiative, funded by the UK Community Renewal Fund and delivered by health and wellbeing specialists, Pluss.
The funding was awarded by the UK Government and administered by Somerset County Council. The project, called Engage Somerset, has helped hundreds of people not in work, to become more physically active and equip them with the skills they need to move closer to employment.
We went along to Highbridge to chat to Community Coaches Claire and Josh - and some of their participants - to find out what the initiative has meant to them.

When filming for this video was over, we were approached by Kerry-Ann, who asked if she could record some personal feedback about her time at Engage Somerset, especially for the support she had received from Claire.
