Activities & wellbeing

Supporting wellbeing, confidence and independence.

Meaningful activities and the right support can help people build routines, connect with others and work towards greater independence. They complement — never replace — professional healthcare.

Wellbeing checks

Checking in, listening and signposting

Our housing officers keep in regular contact with residents. These conversations are a chance to talk about:

  • General wellbeing and how things are going
  • Day-to-day concerns
  • Emotional support and signposting
  • Independent living skills
  • Recognising when extra help may be needed
  • Referrals to appropriate professional services

The frequency of wellbeing checks is to be confirmed. Our team does not provide clinical or medical treatment.
