Dorset Mind is delighted to announce a new five-year contract to deliver Access Wellbeing in North Dorset.
The charity is excited to help tackle the postcode inequity for support, which is particularly challenging in the isolated rural north of the county. They will begin recruiting for six positions imminently, aiming to have their team in place by Spring 2025.
Dorset Mind will work in partnership with Dorset Healthcare, BCHA, The Lantern, Help & Care and Harmony as part of the cross-county offer of transformational wellbeing support for adults.
Access Wellbeing provides different types of support depending on each person’s needs, including easy access to early help with the issues that can impact our mental health and wellbeing.
There are currently Access Wellbeing hubs in Boscombe, Poole and Weymouth that provide a welcoming space for members of the local community to find support on the issues that matter to them.
This new addition will bring much-needed consistent support to North Dorset for five years and will make a huge impact in the community.
