We provide a safe, accessible and non- clinical environment within the local community where women come together to identify, understand and work through the root causes of their mental health issues We do this by offering a programme which give women opportunities to look at issues such as :self-esteem, thinking styles, coping skills and anxiety management.We recognise the importance the role creativity plays in the mental health process and offer a programme of creative expression as well.
Why the community needs usWe offer an unique service for women in Carrickfergus as we are the only community based organisation who explore untried ways of understanding the experience of human distress and suffering that brings women into contact with mental health services. Women's lives have been saved and they have been able to overcome traumatic life events with the support of a nurturing community. This has brought stability and wellbeing into their families and communities.
Our impact on the communityWe support 30 -35 women on a weekly basis, by providing courses, one to one support and social opportunities
