Southwark CCG has commissioned Self Management UK to provide free courses to help you feel positive about your mental wellbeing or your long term health condition:
Mental Health Wellbeing
The courses are led by experienced facilitators, who have experience and an understanding of mental health conditions. The course is run in the community over 7 weeks with each session lasting three hours.
Making that first step is often the hardest. Each person attending will have the same worries and concerns as you. Each new group consists of ALL new participants – so we everyone is a first timer.
