Derby
Derbyshire Mind provide a range of advocacy and community mental wellbeing
services designed to support people with mental health problems as well as the
wider population. Advocacy Services: Our Community and Specialist Advocacy
services provide support for Derbyshire residents to have their voice heard when
important decisions are being made about their lives or to overcome issues that
are impacting on their health and wellbeing. We also provide independent
advocacy support for Derbyshire residents who wish to make a complaint about
their NHS care or treatment, including any complaint against an organisation or
service funded by the NHS. Enjoying Derbyshire: ‘Enjoying Derbyshire’ is our
name for our community mental wellbeing programme comprising of groups and
activities that have the common goal of improving mental wellbeing by boosting
mood, reducing loneliness and isolation, and creating meaningful connections
between people in Derbyshire. Active Monitoring: Active Monitoring is our guided
self-help service for people experiencing mild to moderate mental health
problems. Currently the Derbyshire Mind Active Monitoring service is being
delivered from three GP practices across Derbyshire: Crich, Ripley, and Horizon
in Derby. MindSpace: Derbyshire Mind’s MindSpace meet-ups are supportive
community groups in local parks that creates space for people to get together,
get some fresh air, meet some new friends, and be listened to in a friendly and
inclusive group. All MindSpace walks are supported by our fantastic Derbyshire
Mind volunteers who are friendly, inclusive, welcoming and really great
listeners. We listen without judgement and without trying to ‘fix’ or give
advice.
