Wellbeing (Project Catalyst) – Care Network Cambridgeshire

Project Catalyst supports people who may have been shielding or who may be anxious about getting back out and about in their community, helping to boost their confidence and independence. It provides free, short-term support for people not already receiving similar support elsewhere and not living with more complex and enduring mental ill health. Project Catalyst volunteers can accompany individuals to go out for a walk, take their first trip to the local shops, get back to a group or social activity or to take their first steps in attending a group.

This project also has a Check-in-and-Chat Service.

This is a free service.

Other services offered by Care Network:

• Community Development – helping local groups and activities set up and run safely across Cambridgeshire.
• Help at Home – a service that offers free practical and emotional support in the home for any adult who has come out of hospital or is experiencing an illness or crisis at home. Anyone, including individuals themselves, concerned families, hospital or community-based professionals and other organisations can make a referral for help.
• Community Navigator – provide information and guidance, as well as signposting to other organisations who can help you and local activities that are useful or enjoyable.
