Solihull Mind
provides a variety of services to those who live in Solihull borough
(including Chelmsley Wood, Castle Bromwich, Kingshurst, Smithswood
etc, Knowle/Dorridge, Balsall Common, and Meriden) and are aged
between 17 and 65. Our services cover three main areas: practical
help, e.g. information, help with employment issues, help with forms
or dealing with official bodies (advocacy); support, e.g. counselling,
and support groups on particular areas of mental health; and social/leisure
services, which includes our drop-in services and other activities
such as art and sport.
All our services
are provided free of charge and are self referral - i.e. you don't
need a letter from a GP, social worker etc. (in fact we can't accept
referrals from other agencies), although you can ask someone else
to make the first contact with us if that is easier for you. Some
services you can just turn up at our building when the service is
running (e.g. the drop-in), others may need an appointment (e.g.
counselling).
Solihull Mind's
services are provided according to our policies on equal opportunities
and confidentiality. All information is confidential to Solihull
Mind and no written records are kept. We will only consider breaching
confidentiality when there is serious and immediate risk of harm
to a third party. Details of our policies are available on request.
