Relate Mid Wiltshire (UK, 1080492) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

Relate Mid Wiltshire works to encourage respect and fulfilment in all relationships, particularly couple and family relationships, thus promoting individual wellbeing. Services are offered to individuals, couples, families, young people, employees, irrespective of ethnicity, disability, religion, sexual orientation, gender, age or financial means. A member of the Relate Federation, we are keen to encourage early intervention and run supportive workshops for parents and carers. In response to increased demand we now provide counselling in secondary schools, our Relateen service; and primary schools, our Time to Talk service. In addition we offer an independent counselling service, Talk Zone for children aged 7 to 19 years old. This service is valued by young people who do not wish to be seen in school. Typically a young person fed back her life had been transformed by understanding her own pattern of behaviour. Due to the economic downturn the funding opportunities for Talk Zone have shrunk, and a free service is unsustainable at a time when it is needed most. Whilst we continue to offer it with a bursary, to enable Talk Zone to be reinstated as a free service in the future, £40,000 a year needs to be raised. Relate Mid Wiltshire does not receive Central Government funding and relies heavily upon the hard work and generosity of local funders and donors to sustain the services that are provided.
