Community Support with Brighterway
At Brighterway, we are committed to providing essential community services that go beyond what NHS funding can cover. Our mission is to support individuals across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, helping them to lead healthier, more independent lives. Through innovative projects and vital funding, we ensure that those who need extra care and support receive it, no matter their circumstances.
Why Community Services Matter
NHS community services play a crucial role in the well-being of individuals who require additional support outside of hospital settings. Whether it’s mental health assistance, social inclusion projects, or initiatives to combat loneliness and isolation, these services make a real difference in people’s lives. However, due to funding limitations, many vital community projects are not covered by standard NHS budgets. That’s where Brighterway steps in.
By bridging the gap between NHS funding and community needs, we help to enhance patient care, improve quality of life, and promote social inclusion. Our work focuses on providing practical support, funding innovative programmes, and ensuring that everyone has access to the resources they need to thrive.
How Brighterway Supports Community Services
As a dedicated NHS charity, we fund and support a variety of community-based projects aimed at improving health and well-being. Some of our key initiatives include…
Social Inclusion and Mental Health Support
Many people facing mental health challenges struggle with isolation and disconnection from their communities. Our projects, such as the Social Inclusion Group, help individuals build confidence, develop social skills, and reintegrate into society. By funding peer support groups, creative therapy sessions, and community events, we empower individuals to rebuild their lives.
Support for Older Adults and Vulnerable Individuals
Ageing, disability, and long-term health conditions can make everyday life challenging. Our initiatives provide support for older adults and vulnerable individuals, ensuring they receive assistance with social engagement, mobility, and mental well-being. We help to fund community activities, befriending schemes, and accessibility improvements to enhance quality of life.
Wellbeing and Recovery Programmes
Recovering from illness or managing a long-term health condition requires more than just medical care. We fund wellbeing programmes that promote holistic recovery, including mindfulness sessions, exercise classes, and gardening therapy. These initiatives help individuals regain confidence, build resilience, and maintain their mental and physical health.
Crisis Support and Emergency Funding
Life’s challenges can sometimes leave individuals in urgent need of help. Whether it’s a financial crisis, housing insecurity, or emergency mental health support, Brighterway provides grants and funding to ensure that those in distress receive the assistance they need. By offering immediate support, we help people stabilise their lives and move forward with dignity.
