About the appeal

Manor Gardens works with people across North London who need support with their mental and physical health. We assess their priorities and provide a wide range of wellbeing activities at our centre, one-to-one advocacy and peer support. We also provide therapeutic support for vulnerable people and social activities to reduce isolation. With the results of Covid-19 still prevalent in our communities and people becoming more isolated and vulnerable our support is needed more than ever.

How the funding will be spent
We now know that Covid has affected people's lives in many ways, some of which are only now becoming obvious. People's mental health and wellbeing are suffering greatly and there is a rise in domestic abuse. We need to raise £50,000 to ensure we can support vulnerable people with their wellbeing and provide counselling. We need £500 a week to pay for the extra resources for assess new clients and make welfare check calls. £500 a week will provide 10 online therapeutic groups or one-to-one sessions a week.

How this will benefit the community
We support people in North London who are vulnerable for many reasons including long-term conditions, mental ill health, isolation and poverty. Due to Covid-19 more people than ever are slipping into this group and we need more resources to help everyone who needs it. Our timely interventions, both practical and emotional, will prevent people's problems escalating and will enable them to continue to remain part of our community, improve their wellbeing and support their own families.
