About us
Who we are
The Centre for Better Health is a registered charity that supports wellbeing and recovery from mental ill health. We provide a holistic range of services in a trusted, community-based, non-clinical setting:
Better Health Counselling: Our low-cost counselling service helps people to make sense of difficult experiences, deal with negative thoughts and feelings and make positive changes in their lives.
Better Health Hub: Our Hub offers a range of low-cost creative, movement and therapeutic groups and courses to support self-care and promote wellbeing.
Better Health Training: Our social enterprise (comprising of Better Health Bikes and Better Health Products) offers 12-week, work-skills training placements to help provide in-roads into employment for those who are struggling with their mental health.
Pathways to Better Health: Pathways is our outreach and support service for 18-25-year-olds living in City and Hackney. We offer free, one-to-one support for up to 12 sessions. Whilst not a counselling or therapy service, we can offer a safe space to talk about how young adults are feeling, and provide practical, personalised support to help with this.
Through our services, we support individuals to achieve:
-
Personal growth
-
Improved wellbeing and quality of life
-
Employment progression
Our ultimate goal is for individuals to lead satisfying and hopeful lives in a society without any stigma around mental ill health.
