Providing practical support to help people to feel less lonely and reduce social isolation, improve their physical and mental wellbeing, promote creativity and feel more connected within their communities.

We understand that each person’s needs will be as individual as they are. So, whether it’s getting out and about more, creating opportunities to spend more time with friends or family, starting a new hobby or even restarting an old one we will help people to make their desired change.

Each person will have their own ‘wellbeing buddy’ – someone who will be there to help and support them along the way.

In addition, we’re planning to hold monthly Wellbeing Socials on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday from 10.00am to 1.00pm in several locations around the borough.

The socials will be a welcoming, safe place for everyone involved and provide an opportunity for people to try new activities in local community services. The groups will help people to build confidence and self-esteem by supporting them to feel less lonely and improve their wellbeing.
