What is it about?
Rather than telling people what to do, Making Every Contact Count is about recognising opportunities to talk to people about their wellbeing using the skills of asking and listening.
Making Every Contact Count (MECC) is a way of supporting individuals to address the factors that contribute to health risks such as alcohol consumption, smoking, diet, exercise and diet.
MECC Healthy Conversations is an approach that is used in millions of day to day interactions that organisations and individuals have with people, to support them in making positive changes, to both their physical and mental health and wellbeing.
