Reach Out
At Wellington Mental Health and Wellness we believe no one should feel isolated or abandoned at a time when they need help most.
The catalyst for setting up Wellington Mental Health and Wellness Trust was the loss of our sister, Mary. Mary was a much loved sister, daughter, mother and friend; she was the life and soul of the party. Christmas 2018 saw Mary take her own life and the loved ones she left behind struggling with a pool of emotions. Many of Mary’s family struggled to find support with some citing helplines and organisations as tick box exercises. We wanted to find ways in which people could reach out and find that support and to work with organisations such as the NHS to promote good mental health, whilst recognising the importance of an individual’s own primary care giver.
