SUPPORTED PROJECT

Newport Saracens is a club on the up. With success on the field and a warm welcome in the club house, our player and support base has seen rapid growth. To better accommodate visitors, along with the hope of offering more to those that need it, NSRFC is seeking funding support to improve access and light to the club house and Playing areas. Access is currently across uneven ground, which gets boggy over the winter. We wish to install a firm, flat base and path with better lighting.

SUPPORTED PROJECT

Access to mental health support is a growing challenge in Newport and across Wales. Many people from minority communities face extra barriers when seeking help. From language and cultural differences to a lack of trust in mainstream services. At the same time, mental health services are under pressure, with workforce shortages and a lack of culturally competent practitioners. The Community Mental Health Support Bank (CMHSB) aims to address both issues simultaneously.

PROJECT BENEFICIARIES
  • Children / Young People
  • Adults
  • The General Public / Mankind
  • Carers
  • Homeless & ex convicts
  • Other Charities or Voluntary Bodies
  • Children / Young People
  • 10-15 trained, based on 6-month pilot capacity
  • The General Public / Mankind
  • 20–25 trainees per year, ensuring quality and full support
