Getting out and about and meeting up with others can make such a big difference to your mental health and wellbeing.
That’s exactly why our Supported Housing team started running our Rise Up walking group and Coffee and Culture group for their service users.
The two groups recently embarked on a joint trip to Beamish, the world famous open air museum to discover more about the history of North East England. As part of World Mental Health Day, we went along with them to find out more about the groups and how they help service users with their mental health.
If you are a Supported Housing customer and would like to take part in the Coffee and Culture group or Rise Up walking group, please let you support worker know.
