New Self-Health collection in the library

The library has been given some external funding for a new 'Self-Health' collection. We have purchased books and DVDs on a variety of topics around health and well-being, which should be of interest to both clinical and non-clinical members of staff. We also hope that healthcare professionals will recommend some of these titles to their patients. We are always looking for suggestions from staff, so if you know of a good book which will help someone to improve their health and well-being, please let us know.


Here are just a few of the resources we have purchased so far:















We also have a selection of DVDs, such as a zumba fitness exercise kit, Rosemary Conley's Fitness Triple Pack DVD and Davina's Ultimate Target DVD. All are available for loan from the library at Stepping Hill.


Remember that all titles in the Self-Health collection can be found in the public libraries in Stockport. You can check if your local library has a particular title or topic here: http://prism.talis.com/stockport/home


23rd - 27th April is Self-Health Week and library staff will be displaying items from the new Self-Health collection, giving away freebies and organising a quiz with prizes.
