Our charity supports various projects to help people with mental health problems and assist them to stay active and to be more actively involved in their communities and workplace. The Trust provides a wide range of excellent local and national services. However, with the changes in funding and the increasing pressures on NHS Trusts to save even more money over the coming years presents a challenge to the ever increasing demands on services. We work collaboratively with our staff and patients and there are already examples of initiatives that add value above and beyond what we do and go the extra mile in improving people’s lives. The Trust Board oversees the Charitable funds Committee. In addition a diverse team of staff and patients from across the Trust will be working with the Committee to review proposals and allocate funding.
The aim of SPACE is to provide a local, fun, safe and accessible environment in which children with disabilities and additional needs can play. Also opportunities for parents and carers to meet and provide mutual support. The charity has been founded by mums who have children with disabilities and additional needs. Through our own experience we have found that there is very little support for families with young children with disabilities/additional needs and locally there are no accessible play areas. Our goal is to increase the support and opportunities through continuing to provide our 'stay and play', 'little stars' and parent support sessions. We aim to raise enough money to open our own centre so that we can support more children and their families.
