Take a look at our current charity appeals below. Whether you make a one-off donation, share our appeal on social media or fundraise towards a specific cause, your support is greatly appreciated and improves the experience for patients receiving care in CNTW services.
Sensory playroom - Beadnell Mother and Baby Unit, Morpeth
Beadnell Mother and Baby Unit at St. George's Park is a specialist regional facility for women experiencing mental health difficulties in the antenatal or postnatal period. The ward provides specialist treatment for a range of disorders and offers a wide range of interventions to promote recovery.
The team are looking to develop a sensory playroom for mother, babies and their families to use during their admission. We hope that the new sensory room will offer a safe and relaxing space, to help promote a feeling of comfort, containment and stress regulation. We would like the room to have sensory lights, equipment to play soothing music, different sensory equipment, comfortable seating and aroma diffusers.
Voyage to Recovery - Early Intervention in Psychosis service, Newcastle and Gateshead
Over the past few years, service users recovering from psychosis, and staff from the Early Intervention in Psychosis team, have embarked on an exciting adventure-therapy trip, sailing a tall ship from Whitehaven to Glasgow. The experience has been described as 'life changing' by service users, enabling them to develop connections, friendships, new skills and self-confidence.
The service rely on funding from SHINE to make the trip possible. Can you help make this experience possible for years to come?
Activity resources - Memory and Later Life Service, Whitehaven
Every day, the Memory and Later Life Services support older adults facing memory loss and mental health challenges, as well as the families who care for them. Our services already provide vital assessment, diagnosis, and treatment, and your donations help add extra resources to make an even bigger impact.
Funds raised will go towards materials and resources for activities, wellbeing sessions and all our groups, enhancing support and helping to promote care and independence for service users while supporting carers. Every donation, no matter how small, helps enhance care and independence for service users while supporting carers.
