Rotherham Mental Health Peer Support 10k Walk

S62 Community Together Rotherham CIC started 3.5 years ago

They are a non profit organisation with all income used to benefit the borough of Rotherham

We are Rotherham's lived experience Mental Health and Recovery support organisation for Rotherham Adults supporting people with Mental Health, Recovery from addiction, Isolation and Poverty

We are open to all adults in Rotherham and the surrounding areas

So why are we doing this?

2 BIG Reasons!

ACCESSIBILITY/DEMAND - We listen to the voices of our Peers and while we are open to all of Rotherham our base in the North of the Borough (Rawmarsh) can make attending difficult for people to access our daily drop-in support and 1:1 support sessions. We are growing bigger than our current space which is a community space we use with other community support offers such as Rawmarsh Foodbank and The Drop-In Centre (Rawmarsh)

AWARENESS - We are working hard with our local NHS Trust RDASH, Our Primary Care Network and the South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board to improve mental health services, expand their offering with the support of community volunteers and showcase the strength of our community when we come together! We want to hear your voices, we want people to know what is available to them and we want to improve our Mental Health, Suicide and Self Harm rates in Rotherham.

If you or a loved one has been affected by anything that has been mentioned, please support in any way that you can!

Spreading the word, joining in on the day, sending messages of support all helps!

Thank you!
