As part of the redesign of Primary Care Mental Health Services the new Wellbeing Hub (WWB Hub) was launched across Worcestershire on Monday 16^th May.

What is the WWB Hub?   

Worcestershire Wellbeing Hub is an information and signposting service for people over the age of 16 who are experiencing low mood, anxiety or stress, and feel that they would benefit from support from local community providers.

What are the benefits?    

The Wellbeing Hub is the community wellbeing element of the Worcestershire Healthy Minds service providing timely access to community and voluntary sector services; working alongside the Single Point of Access as part of the Enhanced Primary Care Mental Health Service.

Wellbeing Assistants are there to:

• Provide information and signposting for wellbeing services provided by the voluntary sector across Worcestershire.
• Take bookings for the Community Wellbeing Programmes such as Moodmaster and Peer Support.
• Redirect people to self-help resources.

Who can they help? 

They can help anyone in Worcestershire over the age of 16 experiencing low level common mental health problems which cause some disruption to everyday life.  The Worcestershire Wellbeing Hub can be contacted via self – referral, GPs or other professionals, family carers, or anyone seeking information about community wellbeing services in the county.
