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.
