A new innovative mental health programme has been supporting local people from across the Wigan borough.
The programme has been delivered in partnership with Wigan Athletic Community Trust, Wigan Borough NHS Living Well, Wigan Council, BeWell Wigan, Wigan Rebuild with Hope and the NHS Greater Manchester Mental Health Trust.
Utilising a ‘trauma-informed' approach, the programme puts peer support, physical activity and the empowerment of individuals at the forefront of its design. The programme is delivered across 12 weeks to cohorts of up to 10 people referred to the programme by Wigan Borough Living Well.
To find out more about the programme, please email Wigan Athletic Community Trust's Health Engagement Manager, Jamie Cook, at j.cook@wiganathletic.com
