Oldham Live Well Evaluation

What the buyer is asking for

GM Live Well is Greater Manchester’s commitment to ensuring great every day support is available in every neighbourhood. It represents a shift in how public services work with people and communities. Live Well is a partnership between NHS GM, 10GM and GMCA, the 10 local authorities, health, business, the Voluntary, Community, Faith and social enterprise sector and people and communities. Working together to create conditions for people to thrive, not just survive, removing barriers to opportunity and tackling health, social and economic inequalities. In 2023, with support from The National Lottery Community Fund, the Live Well programme was launched, enabling five accelerator sites to lead work (one of which was Oldham) to tackle persistent barriers to Live Well. These areas are a part of a growing movement for community-led health and wellbeing, connecting and amplifying existing, brilliant support in GM’s communities During 2025, Live Well’s strategic remit has expanded, and it has grown to become Greater Manchester’s catalyst for delivering long held prevention and reform ambitions. Live Well will bring about a radical shift in public service delivery at a neighbourhood level, underpinned by transformational and new ways of working between and across the statutory sector, Voluntary, Community Faith and Social Enterprise sector, and communities. Live Well is focussed on prevention and health creation. Live Well is not a programme or service but a whole system approach to changing how we work with communities and in our public service systems, to grow community power, wealth and action. • It is community-led - led by Greater Manchester’s communities who determine and take action on what is important to them. This means supporting leadership, voice and capacity within communities of place, identity, interest and experience – particularly those most impacted by structural inequalities, racism and injustice. • It is system-enabled - it works to transform the system to enable community action, power and wealth to flourish. This means unblocking persistent barriers and building shared purpose, collective accountability and responsive leadership across neighbourhoods and public services.
