Purpose Provide 1-1 goal based support with a mental health recovery worker
Provide peer support groups
Volunteer options (Peer facilitators of groups, tech buddies, group development assistants)
Services We have several Mental Health Recovery Workers over the county who will work alongside those people who have been referred to us. This is in a very goal focused way so they gain skills to manage their mental health, live independently and to increase their confidence.

The development of peer support groups based on need but not to duplicate what is already in the community. This is done in co-production with those who have been through mental health support and are in recovery. Part of this will also look at development of Peer Facilitators with support and training from the service.

The development and facilitation of Wellbeing Advice and Support Hubs across the county.
