Where do the funds go?
We've been able to introduce a number of ‘good ideas’ within our communities and across our wards; including a monthly support group for service users with Young Onset Dementia, a dedicated social inclusion programmes with badminton trial sessions and outdoor table tennis for patients.
Funds have allowed us to put into place interactive workshops and creative spaces for children and young people to write about their experiences after covid.
We have also been able to fund the production of a short, educational film on how to talk to someone contemplating suicide and further funded innovative training modules to aid patient-staff communication.
Your support will help us continue to tackle health inequalities, challenge stigma and enable our specialist mental health and community services to do more.
