Delivering holistic person centred support to local residents

Testimonial – Sarah

“I was referred to Care in Mind by the Community Mental Health Team as I had not long been discharged from psychiatric hospital and still felt very vulnerable. When I started there I was very anxious and agitated, and struggling with day to day living. The staff were very friendly and reassuring.

I started attending the creative writing group, cycling, walking and healthy eating. The other service users were also very friendly and helpful, especially as I hadn’t rode a bike for many years! Care in Mind also referred me to someone to help me fill in my benefit forms.

I slowly got stronger both mentally and physically and I am now back working part time and will also be doing part time study. Several months ago I would not have thought this would be possible. I would like to thank Sandra and the other staff at Care in Mind for their support and care during what was an extremely difficult time.”
