4. Health
“Health is more than an absence of physical disease, it is a state
of complete physical, mental and social we"being”
(World Health Organisation, 1948)
“Health is a resource for everyday life, not the objective of
living. Health is a positive concept emphasising social and
personal resources, as we" as physical capacities”
(Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion 1986)
Wednesday, 25 April 12
5. Wellbeing
“A positive state of mind and body, feeling safe and able to cope, with a sense of connection
with people, communities and the wider environment”
Department of Health, 2009
“A positive physical, social and mental state, it is not just the absence of pain, discomfort and
incapacity. It requires that basic needs are met, that individuals have a sense of purpose, that
they feel able to achieve important personal goals and participate in society. It is enhanced by
conditions that include supportive personal relationships, strong and inclusive communities,
good health, financial and personal security, rewarding employment and a healthy and
attractive environment”
Defra, 2007

promotion.

and stress stay well and others don’t.

Wednesday, 25 April 12
10. The Public Health
challenge
• Chief Medical Officer (2009) – a greater focus on what creates health,
alongside traditional approaches to preventing illness.
• Marmot Review (2010) – “creating conditions for individuals to take control
of their own lives.”
• Public Health White Paper (2011) - improving health through greater
emphasis on well-being and prevention, building people’s self esteem,
confidence and resilience,’ shifting power to local communities and
tackling the determinants of health.
• The asset approach provides an approach for councils and their
partners to respond to these challenge.

12. The principles
Assets: any resource, skill or knowledge which
enhances the ability of individuals, families and
neighbourhoods to sustain health and wellbeing.
Instead of starting with the problems, we start with
what is working, and what people care about.
Networks, friendships, self esteem and feelings of
personal and collective effectiveness are good for our
wellbeing
Wednesday, 25 April 12
13. Values
Identify and make visible health-enhancing assets in a community
See citizens and communities as the co-producers of health and
well-being as well as the recipients of services
Value what works well
Identify what has the potential to improve health and well- being
Empower communities to control their futures and create tangible
resources
Wednesday, 25 April 12
14. Identifying assets
The actual and potential assets of
• individuals (head, heart and hands)
• associations
• organisations
Primary, secondary and potential assets
Physical, economic and cultural assets
Wednesday, 25 April 12
15. Rights, discrimination and
social justice
As well as having (and being) assets, people still have
rights - this is not about ignoring rights.
We recognise that inequalities in life chances, health
and opportunities are rooted in the ways that our
healthcare, education, employment and other systems
operate which results in discrimination.
We seek an assets approach which
enhances, not distracts from, social justice.
