Community Groups & Events
Providing support to the local community through our wellbeing workshops, groups, events and visiting agencies.
The groups are a place to meet new people and to share worries, anxieties and most of all our achievements. They are fully inclusive.
We provide a different topic or support for you to be involved in, free interactive groups. Our Wellbeing Coordinator Debbie is here for any questions you may have.
