Great work by our chair 👍
Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting an amazing gentleman at the community hub – Cllr Pete Spink, Councillor for New Duston East Ward.
We had a very open and honest conversation about current community issues, particularly elderly care, wellbeing, and social isolation.
Cllr Pete is also the chair of local award winning wellbeing charity Space 2 Talk that offers free community walks for anyone who may benefit from gentle movement and companionship.
These walks are fully tailored to individual needs – if a group walk feels too much, or getting to a venue is difficult, Pete and his team of walk leaders are happy to visit individuals and discuss needs and requirement’s and offer one-to-one walk sessions that are adjusted to suit personal physical abilities.
We also spoke about how many men don’t always look after their own wellbeing, often putting others first and not seeking support.
This is something we are keen to change, and I’m pleased to say we will be working together to offer more support and opportunities, especially for men in our community.
A truly positive and encouraging meeting – I’m really looking forward to working together for the benefit of local residents.
If you or someone you know could benefit from this support, please do get in touch or visit space 2 talk website to find out more about the services that they offer.
