Dorset Mind provides a variety of support options across Dorset. Our resilience-focused support groups educate people about the signs and symptoms of mental ill health and support people to identify and develop new coping skills. We also run an accredited one-to-one befriending programme, designed to help people regain confidence and social skills. The content of our services and support groups are both preventative and restorative. Dorset Mind works in partnership with local decision makers and influential organisations to encourage social inclusion and improve mental health services to meet the rising demands of our communities.
