We know many volunteer led groups and services are taking a well-deserved break over the festive season, so just a note to say our Church Lane Social drop in will still be happening during the festive season. On the 30th December we have extended opening times between 11am and 3pm so come and join us for a chat or to access any support if you are struggling.

 

At our weekly drop in as well as being able to connect socially with others, on different weeks you can access a range of services and information including Lancashire Wildlife Trust. Prestwich Circle, Bury Carers Hub, Learning Disability and Mental Health support, Dementia UK ambassador, Calico Housing support, Broken Biscuits Mens group and much more. You don't need an appointment just come along.

 

We would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone celebrating a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

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! 

If you require any further help or support, contact you local social prescriber Julie today and find out how a social prescriber can help you!
