    Appendix 2 One You Kent Campaign 1. Introduction 1.1 During the consultation period for the re-design of healthy lifestyle services in Kent the public commented that they were not aware of the services that were available, and were unsure of where to go if they wanted further support. 1.2 Whilst the re-design work was underway, Public Health England (PHE) launched the One You brand to promote healthier lifestyles with the intention to create a brand awareness as strong as that of Change 4 Life (over 90% brand recognition). The One You brand is supported by a series of PHE apps to support people , including apps to support giving up smoking, to encourage activity, and healthy meal planners. 1.3 The KCC Cabinet Member for Social Care and Public Health took a key decision for lifestyle services to be integrated and for the resulting service to be called One You Kent in order to take advantage of the national investment in the One You brand, and associated behavioural research. 2 The One You Campaign in Kent 2.1 As a part of a planned programme of campaign work, KCC commissioned two agencies to work on ensuring that the One You message is promoted across Kent. in line with the findings from the behavioural insights report. These two agencies have specific remits: Zest have been engaged to deliver a programme of consumer led work 2.2 iFour have been engaged to work with partners, providers, stakeholders and channels across Kent to understand how the One You message can be effectively spread, and what materials could be developed to support each of these groups to promote healthier lifestyles in a consistent way (using standardised wording and messaging).

  • Sidste Chance. Harvey
    www.kirkeogfilm.dk Sidste chance. Harvey Jeg er vred på dig, fordi du har fjernet min skuffelse! Af Palle Johansen Filmen ’liner’ op med en indledende parallel situationsbeskrivelse af de to hovedpersoner i henholdsvis USA og London: Den forvirrede, slidte og jævnt succesrige jazzpianist Harvey Shine (Dustin Hoffman) på ca. 70, der kæmper med/mod de nye tekniske musikalske krav, hvor han trods sit engagement er truet af en fyring. Hans faglige musikalske stolthed udfordres af yngre medarbejdere, som ikke har problemer med at koble kunst og ’business’. Samtidig følger vi den ca. 50-årige Kate (Emma Thompson), der er single og bruger en stor del af sit liv på at trøste sin mor (Eileen Atkins), som også er alene – forladt af sin mand til fordel for en yngre. -1- www.kirkeogfilm.dk Kate har gode venner på sit job i lufthavnen, som jævnligt udfordrer hende med ’blind dates’, hvor hun sættes sammen med yngre mænd, vises føjeligt frem og går skuffet hjem med en følelse af at være sat udenfor. Harvey er alene i sit liv. Fraskilt og med dårlig kontakt til sin datter i London, der nu skal giftes. På vejen gennem Heathrow, hvor mobilen idelig kimer, får han at vide, at han er fyret, samtidig med at datteren fortæller, at det bliver stedfaderen, der skal føre hende op til alteret. Desillusioneret med et par stive whiskyer i pubben kommer han i snak med Kate om hvem, der har haft den dårligste dag. Modvilligt kommer det fra Kate: ’Du vinder!’ Herefter følger vi de to rundt i Londons gadeliv, hvor de taler og taler deres forskelle og ulykkelige skæbner igennem.
