MoveAhead

MoveAhead is a locally based support service which enables people with mental health support needs to access opportunities and services in the community.   It aims to help people regain confidence self-esteem and enhance individual skills and encourages people to realise their full potential. The service provides one to one support to people who wish to participate in a variety of community based activities and mainstream opportunities. Individual support focuses on helping people to link into a wide range of activities such as voluntary work, work preparation, leisure, recreation, education and social opportunities. The service focuses on enabling individuals to obtain meaningful activity which may be volunteering, engagement in meaningful activity or developing skills to return to employment.

The service works in partnership with local agencies to develop new opportunities and activities in the local community, which may lead to specific qualifications e.g. REHIS Food Hygiene certification, ASDAN Certification.  Our partnership community groups are open to all members of the local community with the emphasis being on improving mental and physical wellbeing through engagement in activity.
