We know lots of you have been asking about a drop in for people under 30 or caring for someone under 30 so we’re starting our new drop in for you on Wednesday. Come along, meet like-minded people, find out what is available locally for you to get involved with and services that may be able to help you and if there is something that isn’t available we can help set something up.

Prestwich and Whitefield Wellbeing Support Pack

“Not being able to get out very much I’ve found this pack really useful in giving me something to do and feeling like a part of the community. I look forward to receiving the pack each quarter and am really pleased I’ve been asked to contribute something too”        D – Prestwich

 

The wellbeing and support pack is full of activities to keep you active, supported, entertained and create a sense of belonging. It is available each season, meaning you get 4 wonderful copies each year!
