WS COVID-19 Support

Wellspring is a counselling and training centre seeking to restore hope, develop resilience and facilitate the lives in adults and young people suffering from emotional distress. 

We offer our services at an affordable rate, understanding that locally, NHS mental health services are overwhelmed and knowing that many of our clients cannot afford private rates. Therefore we offer an alternative; proffesional, long-term counselling for a fee affordable to the client. This could be from as little as £5 per session.

Like many other charities the outbreak of COVID-19 has meant we have had to cancel a lot of our fundraising events, which make our life saving work possible. As well as this we know there will be an increase in demand on our service as the nations mental health is put under pressure with people experiencing lonliness, isolation, increased domestic violence and financial uncertainty, loss of loved ones, loss of work and education...

Therefore we are launching this appeal to ask for your support. We have been aroung for 17 years serving the community of Harrogate, North and West Yorkshire. This is a two way relationship as you have also served us through your fundraising and support. We are asking that you do this again to ensure our vital service is still here for your families, neighbours, work colleagues and friends for the upcoming years, when it will be espeically needed. 

£20 can provide a session for a young person or adult suffering from the overwhelming distress of anxiety and low mood. We know that counselling has positive long term affects on individuals lives. Giving them confidence to make healthy decisions, giving them resilience to overcome past trauma and upset and giving them comfort to explore painful experiences and move on unhindered. Can you help us help the community today.
