Surrey launches virtual wellbeing hub to support mental health
There’s new support in Surrey if you, or someone you love, is struggling with depression, anxiety or low mood.
The Surrey Virtual Wellbeing Hub is a digital platform which supports Surrey residents who need interactive mental health and emotional wellbeing support during the COVID-19 isolation measures, by connecting them to online resources and support available across Surrey.
A joint partnership between Surrey Heartlands Health & Care Partnership, Surrey County Council, Surrey and Borders Partnership and the voluntary sector, the Hub is designed to be a ‘one-stop-shop’ for connecting people to online mental health and emotional wellbeing support, either through self-referral or referral from a third party.
The Hub hosts a range of activities and support sessions from Surrey organisations including Community Connections (Richmond Fellowship, Catalyst, Mary Frances Trust and their partners), Age UK Surrey and Surrey Coalition of Disabled People.
Find The Hub here. People not online can seek emotional wellbeing support through a free, 24-hour confidential helpline on 0808 802 5000 (in high demand periods, an answerphone service may be in place) or by SMS Text 07537 432411 (staffed Monday to Friday 9am-2pm).
