Support

Mind Coventry, Warwickshire and Worcestershire aim to offer services to support individuals to achieve personal mental health and wellbeing. We see everyone as an individual and consider their desires, situations, values, and social circumstances, through creating an inclusive culture for all - ensuring everyone is treated fairly and with respect. We encourage people to take ownership of their own mental health through our wellbeing hubs, offering one-to-one sessions, peer support groups, training and workshops alongside volunteering and employment opportunities.

The Leamington Spa based Charity was set up in 2014 in Pam’s memory to support those living with a Dementia diagnosis and their family Carer/s within South Warwickshire. Key areas of our work focus around initiating and setting up community support groups, providing free activities, music, friendship, carer information and fun, all provided by wonderful trained volunteers.

The Stour Toy Library is the initiative of the Stour Health and Wellbeing Partnership and now has a permanent base at the Ellen Badger Community Hub where all the toys are located.

We will still be holding sessions on term time Mondays at the Shipston Baby and Toddler Stay and Play at the Scout Hut, New Street, CV36 4EW between 10am and 11am, however we will also have a drop in click and collect service at the Ellen Badger Community Hub, Stratford Road, CV36 4AX each Thursday from 11am to 12noon. There will be some toys available for your little one to play with, the offer of a cup of tea or coffee and a chat for the parents and caregivers.

VASA enables older and vulnerable people to make friends and live independently through social accessible activities, carer and dementia support and to access vital medical services and support through its community door to door transport services. Our services are volunteer led – changing lives by connecting communities.

Warwickshire Community and Voluntary Action have provided free partnership/charity development advice/work, funding identification and application support since becoming involved in January 2020. Funding for the role that supported SHWP was via Warwickshire County Council and Stratford On Avon District Council's Social Inclusion Partnership. Stour voluntary or community groups who also want support or advice are advised to contact chrisfreeman@wcava.org.uk or access support via https://www.wcava.org.uk/
