Tuesday 4th May 2021 - Update on Haringey Course with Well Being Network



Posted 12:55pm

We have three weeks left of our Ajani course with Haringey Well Being Network, which we started back in February after winning funding from Haringey Giving.

It has been on Mondays, so there has been a couple of Bank Holiday interventions, but we have thoroughly enjoyed our time, delivering first via Zoom from their Stapleton Hall Road address in Haringey, to then having people actually attend that address.

It has been a slight learning curve for us, as this was the first time we have attempted this intervention online, and it naturally brings up its own issues.  The interaction within our course is one of our selling points, and this was a lot tougher online.  Personally, I feel that mental health assistance is more effective if face to face, although we do recognise the problems that Covid 19 has brought forward.

Overall, so far we have worked with eight different individuals, all of whom have told us they enjoy what we do (with one saying - and I quote - it was good to see you weren't ar*e holes!!!)

We know we have been effective, and we thank Haringey Well Being Network, and Mind In Haringey, for allowing us the opportunity to work with their clients, as well as Haringey Giving for seeing our potential and funding this chance.

I know this course has worked, and we have three weeks still to go.  It makes us even more keen to work with more people.  Yay!!!
