About the project

Extension of Welling Activity (Warm Hub) - “lifeline” for some, one of the few times they leave their house for “pleasure”. Offering peer and non-peer companionship / support / signposting, and opportunities to share memories / experiences. A chance to boost mental wellbeing and enjoy company with others. Pre summer “LEAD Scotland” trialled a Digital Skills Drop In - giving IT support / guidance on online safety. We aim to expand this type of support by inviting different people / groups to the Warm Hub to help support wellbeing / give advice / support.

Type of initiative funded: Peer Support
