“Bring partners together to deliver projects to achieve a measurable and significant improvement in the health of people in Ardoyne and Shankill, reducing the health gap between the area and the rest of Northern Ireland”

• Raise awareness of the factors that affect health and well-being and assist people to better understand these and respond positively to them.
• Work closely with the local community and others to address a wide range of factors which contribute to poor health.
• Monitor and evaluate all A.S.H.P. activities with a view to ensuring that all work undertaken produces positive and measurable health benefits.
• Raise awareness of the role and benefits of the H.L.C. and seek to become an indispensable part the health continuum.
