Wraparound Service of the Month - October

The Wraparound service continues to offer a gentle pathway into mental health support, tailored to each person and their individual needs.

The flexibility of the service allows for the approach to be, to a great extent, person led.

Walk and talks, coffee and chat, wellbeing calls as well as 1-1 home visits can all be considered.

Supporting and encouraging people to build their own ‘Mental Health Toolkit’ helps to rebuild confidence and allow people to regain control of their own responses, leading hopefully to a more manageable approach to wellbeing.

Where possible we signpost and link people into community events, activities and possibilities to increase social contacts and widen interests. Having something to look forward to can make a real difference to how we structure our lives.

We can help to reframe people’s expectations of mental health support, opening the doors to specialist services.

We are able to do this because having an in-house and external network of fantastic professionals allows us access to advice and information that we can present in a way which allows people to set their own achievable goals.

We’re a listening ear, a shoulder to lean on and a reassuring voice when people are feeling overwhelmed by their situation, for whatever reason.
