Waiting for mental health support can be incredibly tough for young people. Our Waiting Well project helps bridge that gap, offering early support through groups and one-to-one sessions.
We want to ensure no young person has to struggle while they wait for long-term care. Our programme helps them:
Share their feelings in a safe space.
Connect with others who understand.
Learn coping skills for their daily lives.
We urgently need your support! Your contribution, big or small, will help us continue this vital project and make a real difference in the lives of Dorset's young people.
Together, we can ensure every young person has the support they need, when they need it most. 💙

Created today on Bournemouth Beach for Mental Health Awareness Week 🌊💙
This week we’re encouraging everyone to take a moment for themselves. To pause, slow down, check in with someone, get outside, or simply notice the world around them.
In partnership with Dorset Tea and inspired by the 5 Ways to Wellbeing, this hand raked installation is a reminder that small moments of reflection and connection can make a difference!

This May, we’re on a mission to get Dorset talking with Talk 10! 🗣️💙
We’re challenging you to build a daily habit of social connection. It’s simple: find 10 minutes every day to have a real conversation with someone.
Why join the #Talk10 challenge?
Just 10 minutes of connection can:
✨ Boost your mood & lower stress
✨ Fight loneliness (for both of you!)
✨ Support mental health through early intervention
Who will you talk to? 📱
It doesn't have to be a deep life talk!
A catch-up with your flatmate over a brew ☕️
Calling your nan for a quick hello 👵
A chat with a stranger at your local cafe 🥐
Your 10 minutes could be the highlight of someone else’s day—and yours, too.
Are you in? Help us spread the Talk 10 message by sharing your #Talk10 Moments on social, or by holding a Talk 10 event at your university, workplace or community group.

This incredible total is a true testament to the power of fundraising. It’s more than just a number; it represents a community coming together to ensure that no one in Dorset has to face a mental health challenge alone.
