How is Wellspring Settlement responding to the Black Lives Matter movement?
We have brought together a staff team to look at our new organisation, how we tackle racism, support and grow our Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) staff and encourage more opportunities for BAME engagement from our communities. We will be bringing forward actions to ensure we stay at the forefront of diversity, equality and inclusion practices.
We welcome contributions from local people so if you want to join us on this vital journey, please get in touch. Contact Paul Simpson, Co-Director, email: paul.simpson@wsb.org.uk

How we can help
Improving or maintaining wellbeing is at the heart of all of Wellspring’s services. As a local community-based charity, we're here to support people who may be struggling with issues such as stress, anxiety, social isolation and physical ailments. We also address the social issues such as debt and housing problems that can contribute to physical and emotional problems.
We improve the wellbeing of local people by bringing together a partnership of community health activities and services - linking together treatments, therapies and activities in a shared space in order to build a healthier community. In essence we make it easier for our community to access health and wellbeing services because they are nearer their doorstep. If you feel you need advice, help or assistance with emotional or physical wellbeing then please take a look at our full range of services. Feel free to get in touch by telephone or email for a no-obligation, confidential chat. Our services are either free or low-cost.

You can make a difference
Wellspring supports local people to improve their health and wellbeing; building their confidence to aspire and achieve goals that can transform their lives.
