Wates Foundation - Breathing Space - RWF May 2023

Their time spent on these areas has increased considerably as the service has grown and expanded in working with individuals and groups. We provide one-to-one in person mental health support for depression, anxiety, stress-related issues, specialist trauma support and bereavement and loss. The current rate of expansion means that we couldn't sustain the level of excellence in our service in the future, providing a quick response to referrals and minimum waiting time, without a major increase in staff hours. Neither could we guarantee increase in volunteer listeners and trainee counsellors without the funding for staff with the necessary expertise to provide essential training. Our passion and plan is to develop more resources and offer more groups to provide help with abuse survivors, women?s issues and a holistic CBT group for anxiety and depression.
