Our groups help people struggling with mental health to find a useful outlet in a safe and understanding environment. Art and creativity help improve mental wellbeing, and with the refurbishment of our premises, we are keen to expand out groups and reach more adults in need of support within our community. Our staff are specially trained and experienced to provide support directly to those with mental health struggles, and our groups are a lifeline to our service users.
This volunteering project will support adults who are currently unemployed due to mental health challenges or who are seeking to build experience and skills to future employment. This trauma-informed programme offers a safe and supportive environment where individuals can build confidence and gain practical experience towards their personal and professional goals. Volunteers will benefit from volunteer placements, 1:1 employment mentoring and access to a range of training opportunities.
This counselling subsidy project will provide fully funded counselling sessions for individuals who are currently open to Adult Social Services. The project will remove financial barriers and ensure timely access to professional mental health support for those with complex or co-morbid needs. The service will improve wellbeing, help manage symptoms, and complement statutory care, alleviating pressures and demand on local social services.
Mind in Gwent, in collaboration with the Youth and Play Service at Duffryn Community Centre, will guide young people to transform the centre garden into a welcoming space the whole community can use and benefit from. In consultation, the young people fed back that they lacked a voice and recognition of the benefit they bring to their community in Duffryn. Gardening and being outdoors is known to improve wellbeing. Mind in Gwent will provide group sessions and support to work with the young people on their wellbeing, while they work on creating the garden which will stand as a legacy to their contribution to the community in Duffryn and encourage wider community use of the space.
