Christmas Wellness

Donation protected
Mental health is so important at any time but especially so during these difficult times and with Christmas not far away.
We want people to know that our service is here to help and support you or your loved ones through these stressful events..

One of our group members has decided not to celebrate Christmas in the usual sense this year (her words were “tinsel, cards & presents are irrelevant when you’ve lost loved ones”).
She is donating what she would have spent on Christmas cards & presents to our service. During a period of significant life changing events which resulted in a breakdown of her mental health, she was introduced to Carol, who she says literally saved her life.

None of us are immune to stress and mental health issues and we all know how difficult times are right now for every single one of us.
We would like any donations (however small) to be given via our gofundme page, to enable us to keep this vital service going.
Over the Christmas period our service will be supporting people, by reducing isolation and enabling them to have a Christmas celebration in a safe way and to not be alone.

Members who need support, are invited to join in the fun, and will be offered lunch, in a safe, socially distanced environment. Others who are shielding will be able to join the fun over live Zoom and lunch will be delivered to their doorstep.
On Christmas Day, Boxing Day and over the New Year our service will be open and offering refreshments and support at our centre.
On New Year’s Eve, which can be a particularly difficult time of the year, we will be on Zoom to offer support and someone to listen. Our goal is to make sure no one is lonely and has the support they need. 
All our staff give their time without being paid to support this goal and ensure that no-one feels so lonely and they have this group for support.
We are all 100% committed to this cause and the money that we are trying to raise through this gofundme page, will be used to support everyone who needs our help.
We appreciate your visiting our page and if you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us by visiting our website at www.cdswellness.co.uk or email [email redacted] 

Thank you for your help in this very worthwhile cause. Hopefully we will be able to ensure that many people do not feel lonely and are able to have some interaction to ensure that they are kept safe and alive!
On behalf of everyone involved with this project, we would like to wish you all a safe and Happy Christmas and New Year. Samantha x
