Get Active and win a FitBit with our ORCHA Digital Health App Finder
ORCHA (the world’s leading, independent #DigitalHealth evaluation and distribution organisation) are holding a competition for Allied Health Professions (AHPs), to run alongside the yearly Twitter We Active Challenge
We Active Challenge is an annual social media campaign run by @WeAHPs and @WeNurses, and it focuses on encouraging the healthcare workforce, their families and friends to be more physically active over the month of August.
ORCHA’s AHPs are taking part in the challenge, starting with recommending our favourite fitness apps to our colleagues and sharing our progress on Twitter via the hashtag #ORCHAAHPs
We would like to invite AHPs that are ORCHA Pros to do the same - and to be entered into a prize draw to Win a *FitBit!
If you haven't yet signed up for your ORCHA Pro Account, contact lucy.gratton@staffordshire.gov.uk to find out how!
Watch this quick video to find out more about the challenge and how you can take part and WIN a *FitBit

More about ORCHA and App Finder
There are an increasing number of health and wellbeing apps available. We are making it easier to help you find apps that can help you to stay healthy and well. Use the search below to find top rated apps across different areas, such as stopping smoking, improving your mental wellbeing, keeping active and managing health conditions.
Working in partnership with us, ORCHA help indicate whether an app appears to be safe and of value across a number of rated areas. Any score below 65% indicates that an app has some issues that users should investigate further prior to using this app. We do not show apps that score below 45% as these apps have considerable issues or challenges and in their current form are potentially unhelpful or unsafe.
You can start using The Staffordshire App Finder tool right away. It’s very easy to use, but a walkthrough video is available if you need help.
