Changed
Wellbeing in Action exist to remove and prevent harm to people's physical, mental, financial, social and community health and wellbeing, through practical solutions that enable people to live their best life. We especially focus on supporting women who have faced trauma, including abuse, and their families. We provide a range of befriending services, specialist trauma therapy facilities and use social action to distribute aid such as household items, clothing, baby equipment and provide support as people rebuild their lives. We work on the basis of a transaction of kindness where every person has a time they need to reach out for help, and all equally have times they can extend to others. Maintaining pride, dignity and being a member for life, rather than being "treated" or "fixed" is part of our ethos. Our motto is 'If we can, we do' and we roll our sleeves up to meet individual needs that make a difference.
