Wellbeing is about having a good quality of life. Many different issues can affect your wellbeing - worries about money, feeling stuck in a rut, or maybe wanting help to change, like quitting smoking.

The Warrington wellbeing team

Our team can help you get the information and support you need to start feeling back on track. They can provide some personal advice, or they help get support from an expert. 

The wellbeing team can support people living with dementia and their carers, people with long Covid. We can also be found at the Talking Points which take place across the town. The team are also based at the Acute Medical Unit at Warrington Hospital to help people get home safely and with the right support in place.

When we might need to refer you to someone else

The team is unable to provide emergency mental health support. If you need help right now, please:

  • Contact your GP, or call the NHS 111 helpline if your GP practice is closed
  • Call the Warrington assessment team on 01925 666647
  • Call Samaritans on 116 123
  • Visit happyoksad.org.uk for advice and information about support services that can help you

The team are not clinical staff so they cannot advise you or comment on medical conditions or medications. They are also not legal experts but they may be able to refer you to a professional who can help.
