The Council for Social Responsibility (CSR) is an independent social action charity, based in Portsmouth

CSR runs a significant number of social programmes across South East Hampshire, Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight and is connected to the Diocese of Portsmouth. CSR seeks to encourage engagement, impact and leadership in the community by involving people of all faiths and none. In recent years, CSR has shifted its emphasis towards a more socially enterprising approach and is currently developing a Young Person wellbeing programme.

If you enjoy crafting or would like to learn a new crafting skill, pop along to a craft club. We recommend you ring the library first to check the club is running that week.

We provide spaces for people to Connect using Creativity. We believe mindful creativity is an underutilised wellbeing tool that should be accessible to all.
Creatful is cross generational and inclusive so we can create spaces for all people to feel welcome and safe. We provide creative events in Waterlooville, Havant, Portsmouth and other parts of Hampshire.
Creatful is a social enterprise – that means whatever money we make from our workshops goes straight back into delivering more for our community.

Creative Advances provides services for adults and young people with a Learning Disability and/or Autism and associated conditions in the Portsmouth area.

We strive to give an excellent service incorporating the wishes and requirements of both the Service User, their families and other professionals including GP’s, District Nurses, Continence Nurses and others.

We work with Social Services and have a large Service User base having to meet certain criteria set by Social Services.

Our care packages are reviewed regularly to ensure the quality of care, the requirements have not changed and that generally everyone involved is happy with the care provided.

We help people through one of the most painful times in life – with bereavement support, information and campaigning.

Our Helpline is run by trained bereavement volunteers, who offer emotional support to anyone affected by grief.

We’ll give you space to talk about your feelings and how you’ve been coping. Our volunteers are completely non-judgemental and won’t share what you’ve told them with anyone else, unless you are in danger.

Cruse offers a free and confidential service to anyone affected and bereaved by suicide, or suspected suicide, in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.

When someone dies by suicide, or suspected suicide, it can be one of the most difficult and distressing times of someone’s life. The impact on families, friends and communities can be devastating.
Some people need support straight away, others reach out later – and that’s ok. We are all different and our own personal circumstances will also be different.
Whether you need emotional support or practical support, Cruse's team of specialists are here to help you.

Cruse can help with:
• Individual support for adults
• Individual support for children and young people and their families
• Practical support when dealing with the Police or Coroner
• Help on an individual basis, in groups or community settings
• Support for schools and workplaces
• Cruse can also put you in touch with other local services that can help
