Our Projects
Mind Over Mountains
Funded by The National Lottery Community Fund.
This is our project funded by The National Lottery Community Fund. We are supporting people who have a diagnosed mental illness and they are being supported in primary care, by their GP. The funding for this project is from March 2025 and continues until February 2028.
We have two full time and two part time workers employed on the project including a new Volunteer Coordinator. We aim to work with up to 100 people a year.
We offer one to one support for up to 12 months alongside access to our regular social groups. We also have a volunteer phone befriending service for those who need social contact after their one to one support has ended.
Our one to one support is to enable people to manage the challenges they face more effectively. This could include supporting people to apply for the appropriate benefits and support to access specialist services to address issues such as debts and housing. Workers will support people to liaise with other agencies such adult social care, mental health and physical health services in order to help them achieve their health and care goals.
