Post 2019 floods, the affected communities
have been facing a number of low level mental health issues,
therefore this project will target: Woodlands, Carcroft, Adwick,
the surrounding areas of Scawthorpe Bentley, Asker, Stainforth ,
incorporating Fishlake
and Edlington & Warmsworth.
The project will offer the use of stress reducing therapies. This
will include talking therapy to aid deep relaxation and the opening
of the subconscious mind to positive scripts and suggestion,
counteracting the pattern of negativity, anxiety or trauma
presented by the client. The need for this project has been
supported by the Humanitarian Health Steering group and Woodlands
Speaks have been undertaking a pilot in one community The
communities of interest have also highlighted a need for the
project to be widened.
