Who is the app for?

This App has been designed for professionals who support people who are affected by benefit cuts or other money worries and indeed can be used by people who are affected themselves. It is hoped that it will make it easier to find the help needed, particularly in times of crisis.


Who created the APP?

The Lanarkshire App was adapted from the original design commissioned by a group of NHS Tayside Public Health Staff. The content for the Lanarkshire App was developed by a group of health improvement staff with technical design and development by mtc media. This app is part of a wider NHS Lanarkshire programme of work to address inequality and particularly to contribute to local action being taken to help reduce any negative health effects of welfare reform and other money problems on patients, staff and local communities in Lanarkshire.
