Improving Your Emotional Wellbeing

We have a number of teams working with GP Surgeries specialising in Social Prescribing, Health Coaching, and Care Coordination. We work with people to find out what is important to them, linking them with all the great things they want to do that will have a positive impact on their physical and mental health.

The YOU Trust employs a range of skilled workers for our Social Prescribing. Such as:

Social Prescribing Link Workers
Care Coordinators
Health Coaches
They are employed on behalf of some innovative GP Practices. These are based inn Portsmouth & South East Hampshire. However, other GP practices employ their own Social Prescribers directly. If you are a patient and would like to speak to a Social Prescriber, then please ask the receptionist at your GP surgery to make an appointment.

We work with people to identify and build their circle of support, which may be friends, family, colleagues, or supporters who form a group, supporting the person to make their own decisions about their life. YOU works in partnership with The EC Roberts Centre and HOPE Portsmouth to support people in crisis in our community.

The Project promotes independence, resilience and recovery from the impacts of COVID through developing Community Circles of Support. We have three Community Circles of Support Partners who help people through outreach, food banks, community larders/pantries and community meals across Portsmouth.

The Community Circles of Support Partners will undertake a holistic assessment identifying skills, potential, root causes of crisis, actions the clients want to take and identify strategies to help themselves for future situations.

The aim of Community Circles of Support Partners is to help people in hardship, including those with complex needs such as mental ill-health, domestic abuse and social isolation. They will benefit from improvements to their health, wellbeing, skills and independence and to understand how to take personal control of their situation.

We offer three types of care and support to meet everyone’s needs:

Homecare/Support at Home – personal care, support with budgeting, housing, social and leisure activities, daily living activities, emotional and behavioural support
Community-Based Support – small groups of people are supported to access relevant volunteering, occupational, social, and leisure activities in your community
Enablement – time-limited support to learn a new skill in your home or community based on your goals and what you want to achieve
Support in supported living accommodation is designed to help individuals live as independently as possible. This while ensuring they receive the necessary assistance around daily living tasks. The level and type of support vary based on individual needs. Such as preferences and goals. Which may include:

household management
personal care
meal planning and preparation
medication management
social and recreational activities
skill development, such as independent living skills, employment and education
In 2021 Hampshire County Council awarded us a 5-year contract to manage their Support and Enablement Services. It covers the:

New Forest
Totton
Hedge End
Fareham
Havant
Waterlooville
Petersfield
Hayling Island

We also offer our services in other areas, like Portsmouth, where local council reffers clients to us.

By working alongside our clients, we can help you achieve your goals. And as partners, we make sure you get the right type of support that you need.

We provide services that include personal care, a variety of skill development and occupational, social, and leisure activities.

We work closely with clients to create person-centered care and support plans. Because of this, our approach is holistic. This develops people’s strengths and goals, helping them to become more independent and live the life they want.
