Wellbeing Support Service launches
July 20, 2021Wellbeing Support Service launches
An exciting, innovative new service to support adults who feel socially isolated and to help people manage their own personal wellbeing has been launched.
The Cardiff Wellbeing Support Service is a new initiative that seeks to boost customer’s health and wellbeing and mitigate some of the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The service will be embedded with the Council’s Community Hubs team and complement the work of the team’s community inclusion officers who organise and encourage participation in the wide range of hub and partner activities and events. The service will provide short term, one-to-one mentoring to those that need it, helping them to access the right support they need.
The team will work with a variety of partners to ensure there is a wide range of provision to help as many people as possible. Clients will be supported to access advice, activities, events, training opportunities and any other provision to help meet their wellbeing needs. Activities will include lunch clubs, social clubs, digital sessions, gardening clubs, singing groups, litter picks, yoga, meditation, volunteering, healthy cooking groups and much more, helping people to make new friends along the way.
