Start taking care of yourself
The Preventative Healthcare Service (The PHS)
Stress Management, Anxiety, Mental Health & Wellbeing Education and Support
The PHS is an independent social enterprise founded by a group of people all dedicated to making big changes in the way healthcare is managed in the UK.
The diverse board at the helm is made up of a group of people all with a shared interest in driving lasting and positive change around mental health, lifestyle medicine and wellbeing.
Our belief is that through learning how to breathe better, sleep better, eat better, relax better and move better - individuals can be supported and educated to generally take better care of themselves.
“The PHS teaches people how they can better manage stress and anxiety in their lives – with a focus on prevention rather than cure. Our focus is to educate, inspire, nurture, empower and practically support people to take control of taking care of themselves.”
Michelle Carvill, PHS Founder and Chair
The problems we're solving:
• The UK is fast becoming a nation addicted to anti-depressants • The drugs aren’t working • Stress & Anxiety is on the increase • Suicide is on the increase • Diabetes is on the increase • Nationally, we have a mental health and wellbeing crisis regardless of age or gender • The NHS can’t solve this alone • Covid19 has exacerbated the issues. • People need to learn how to take care of themselves.
How we do this:
The PHS Stress Management Program
We’ve developed a 6-module structured stress management program. The Program has been piloted with great success to patients via GP surgeries, schools and corporate organisations. The PHS Stress Management Program is easily accessed via our flexible dedicated online learning portal. More about the Program here.
Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility
Our values focus on the health and wellbeing not only of people in the local community, but the wider world. Our business model provides a win, win, win scenario. Win for those that engage with our programs, a win for their employers, and a win for the wider community via our ‘gift’ to the community model.
We also support the global community and sustainability with afforestation/reforestation, partnering with The International Tree Foundation, supporting the planting and growth of trees and other projects around the world, particularly, in marginalised societies which are likely to be impacted more than the UK by climate change.
