Can you help us with a kind donation?

Striding Forwards is a community interest company. This social enterprise is here to serve the community providing workshops that will help people with their anxiety, depression and confidence problems. We offer a one on one peer support service, where people can come into a private and confidential environment and talk building relationships with people in the community.

We also carry out mental health anti-stigma talk's campaigning alongside Time to Change Wales. Without the generosity of our sponsors and the general public we could not do what we do.

Why dontate to us?

We have made progress over this last 12 months. We have taken part in many mental health anti-stigma talks all over Wales, and delivered our anxiety and depression workshop to people in Wales and Cardiff. We have mentored several people helping them find more confidence in themselves.

Confidence is a key ingredient if anyone is to succeed in everyday life. We are helping people from our local community find that confidence by improving their mental health using our services. Here are examples.



The first person we worked with was un-employed and was a heavy drinker and occasional substance user. Overtime he cut down on drinking and completely cut down on substance mis-use. Within 4 months of working with him he found himself a job as a supervisor in a retail store.



The second person we worked with was a heavy drinker. Over the past 3 months he has cut down on his drinking and has found a flat to live in as well as finding himself a girlfriend who is supporting him through difficult times, he is on the up.



This person was a heavy drugs user. He has now completely stopped taking drugs and has now setup his own painting and decorating business which he has been trying to do for years.
