Hope

Person centred Non-clinical Peer Support

Our Hope team are here to help people who have experienced continued or complex mental health challenges, with long-term services not currently meeting their needs.

This service provides support on a 1-2-1 basis over a 12 week period, with the option of further group work.

What to expect

Week 1

You will meet your peer support worker. We will explain the scope of support you can expect and talk about the importance of setting boundaries.
You will need to complete a data protection form and mental wellbeing questionnaire.

Week 2

This week we will discuss your experiences. It’s a chance for you to talk about what’s been happening for you. We will explore these experiences and perceptions together.

Week 3

We will continue with our discussion from week 2, identifying your goals and the barriers. We will also begin action planning so that we can work towards achieving those goals and overcoming any barriers.

Week 4-6

During this time we will breakdown your action plan and make priorities along the way.

Week 7

We are now half way through so we will review your progress to date, and remaining goals. This week we will also begin to prepare for what happens at the end of your time with us.

Week 8-11

We will continue to review your priorities and action plan. We will also identify and arrange any long term support you might need.

Week 12

This is your final session. We will take a look back and review all of your progress. We will also take a look at any actions or next steps.
This session will be used to gather your feedback with a follow-up questionnaire.
You can also use this session to sign-up to a peer support group or further training. You can also join the Being Well in Adversity Group.

“The support has been invaluable and genuine, I feel like I finally have some fight back within myself.”
