About Smartline
Through its work Smartline is gaining a better understanding of people’s health and wellbeing needs. The project explores behaviours that drive those needs, and the role of the volunteer sector in community change.
Its also uncovering how ready and willing people are to use digital technology that aims to improve health and wellbeing.
Smartline's work is supporting the development of an innovative eHealth and eWellbeing enterprise sector, driving improvements in health and wellbeing for individuals and the community. The research is being used to support Small and Medium Enterprises in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
