We’re taking part in the National Emergencies Trust Local Action Fund. Donations to our project will be matched by the fund up to the value of £250 to help us overcome the effects of the pandemic.
Please note only one donation per supporter will be matched by the National Emergencies Trust Local Action Fund.
We are in a mental health pandemic. People need support now more than ever. We need your support to help those most in need, access therapy.
Covid-19 has seen a mental health pandemic, our services have never been more needed. We have seen an increase in suicidal ideation and intention, child abuse, sexual abuse, domestic abuse and rape cases. Along with a financial strain on us to deliver this support with little funding. We have recruited and expanded to meet the demand but now find ourselves struggling to keep the waiting list down. Any funds we raise will go directly to supporting those most at need in our community, providing them with therapy and group support.
With the donations you make you will help us to provide therapy to children, young people and adults who are suffering with their mental health because of Covid-19. We have a waiting list of people desperately needing funding to get the therapy they need. Your donations will help cut their waiting time down and get them the therapy they need quickly. £35 funds one child session and £50 funds one adult session.

Since our inception we have supported over 2500 people, have a combined therapeutic experience of over 100 years.

E.g., diagnosed mental health condition, childhood trauma/victim of abuse, those with SEN and learning needs.
Aims and objectives:
To provide an all-inclusive service that is able to reach all members of the community at a time when they need support the most and in a way that is appropriate to their needs.
