Description: Dickenson Road is a female only project offering supported accommodation, staffed from 9-5pm Monday to Saturday. Dickenson Road is owned by Richmond Fellowship. The service is available to females aged 18-65 who have a mental health diagnosis and require support to become independent. We also have four two-bedroomed flats to enable us to support women who have children.
Our supported housing provides:
Individually tailored support to help individuals develop independent living skills, self management strategies and coping skills
Liaising with community mental health professionals
Recovery pathways, promoting social inclusion
Placements for up to 12 months
To encourage individuals to take up meaningful activities (education, training, volunteering).
We provide emotional support – active listening, understanding, coping strategies, help plan individuals’ aspirations via support plans, mindfulness and positive affirmation techniques, support people to increase their self esteem, food and mood support, anxiety self help and support to problem solve.
We support people to access external services - support to attend welfare rights meetings, medical appointments at hospital or at their GPs, housing hub; support to access leisure, volunteering, employment, craft and community support groups specific to an individual’s interests; support to access counseling and other support services.
We support people to improve their wellbeing – we help individuals to organise their home and daily routine, complete forms, make contact with care coordinators involved in their support, leave their home to engage in social activities, try new things, and manage their finances including debt.
