Situation
Covid-19 has exacerbated the issue of social isolation however, we see this as an ongoing and devastating issue in our community and particularly for those dealing with mental ill health. LEss resources, services and community engagement means there are less opportunities to connect, feel part of a positive space and communicate and connect with those around us. We aim to increase this connectivity by increasing connections online and face to face through group settings and support activity.
Solution
We aim to increase our group delivery of Mindfulness and Chatter groups to allow more autonomy for the community to engage with others, facilitated by us however empowering those attendees to take control and move those groups into the community, to be owned and delivered by those attending is the key act of empowerment. We will improve our technologies to increase engagement through various platforms including social media, virtual reality and conference call software.
