  • Invergordon resource centre – Change Mental Health

    About

    Change Mental Health has a resource centre on the Invergordon high street, which offers a safe and welcoming environment with opportunities to take part in a diverse range of one-to-one and social group activities aimed at recovery and building self-confidence.

    Support is person-centred and builds the support around what people need to move forward with their lives.

    Group activities can help to develop skills, increase skills and improve integration to achieve goals. These can include:

    • Structured groups: increasing knowledge and learning about practical tools for personal development.
    • Open groups: laidback activities such as music, arts and crafts, or creative writing.
    • Community engagement groups: interaction in the community with organised visits to places of interest.
    • Wellbeing groups: finding ways in which you can improve your wellbeing.

    Outreach

    Change Mental Health also supports people with outreach support in Ross-shire to make sure people across rural communities are getting access to the help they need. Outreach support can help with self-management using coping strategies and signposting.
