Wellbeing Support from Space to Breathe
As part of our partnerships with Sheffield Health and Social Care and the Voluntary Sector, we are offering wellbeing and self-care support to individuals across the city through referrals. Sadly, these services can only be accessed through SPA/EWS and the North/South Recovery Teams linked with this project.
We are able to offer 1:1 Support through our Wellbeing Zone service, free places on our Meditation and Reflection course and free weekly online resources.
This work aims to alleviate the pressures on waiting lists for services and provide support for those waiting for care and to those already receiving support through Sheffield’s Social Care and Mental Health support services.
Three are three distinct streams of support which are detailed below and are fully funded for support provided throughout the project pilot working with SPA/EWS and the Adult Recovery Teams. For any other work within SHSC please email info@spacetobreatheuk.com.
Wellbeing Zone
Wellbeing Zones offer five sessions on self-awareness, learning mindfulness, relieving anxiety, lifting stress and building resilience. Can be delivered online/face-to-face in one-to-one sessions.
Wellbeing Suite
The Wellbeing Suite is a library of online wellbeing resources plus a weekly email service. Ideal to accompany a wait for care or to go alongside existing care.
Meditation and Reflection for Wellbeing Course
This course, delivered online, teaches Mindfulness and Reflection skills and encourages a creative and empowering approach to use mindfulness in your own life and to support your mental health.
These opportunities can be accessed either by referral, by completing the form below. Do contact us and we’ll respond within 24 hours.

+ Learning mindfulness, grounding techniques, lifting stress andrelieving anxiety.

"The Space to Breathe resources are invaluable. They provide our clients with the opportunity to build emotional and psychological resilience, it also provides practical strategies to help pad out their kitbag in readiness for the hard work of counselling. It's reassuring to be able to offer something so useful whilst people are waiting for counselling to start.
