The Net
Crisis support in partnership with Stay and Telford Mind.
Citizens Advice Telford & the Wrekin
The Net is a partnership with the Citizens Advice Telford and the Wrekin, Stay and Telford Mind to introduce a crisis support service. This service will fill the gap identified from cuts in support provision across Telford and Wrekin to ensure that people can access the support they need.
People often come back into the service having slipped back into crisis and therefore we have looked at creating a more holistic offering here in Telford that focuses on helping people to be the best that they can be and thrive. Rather than simply addressing the immediate issue, the holistic offering will ensure that each individual can access the right level of support from the point of serious crisis with specialist practical support, care for individuals health and well-being with a focus on mental health and substance misuse, to befriending and peer mentoring to help ensure individuals feel more connected and active in their communities; preventing the need to access support services in the future through improved informal social support networks.
