About Ways for Wellbeing UK CIC

Ways for Wellbeing is a Community Interest Company established by women of colour, with a collective experience of over 30 years in mental health and the health and social care sector. We are experts by experience and have combined our experience with formal training to become Personalised Care Institute (PCI) qualified Health and Wellbeing Coaches. We provide access to activities that promote wellbeing and overall positive mental health.

We provide access to Personalised Care Institute qualified Health and Wellbeing Coaches, Digital Coaches and Employment Coaches to support individuals with low level mental health struggles - those experiencing anxiety, depression, stress. low mood, financial worries, housing issues or work issues.

Our activities serve as conversation starters about mental health, promoting the positive impact of these activities from a young age to instil behaviours that reduce the recurrence of mental health issues.

Our initiatives help individuals change their behaviour and equip them with improved coping mechanisms for ongoing support.

By encouraging individuals to play an active role in their well-being, our Health and Wellbeing coaches boost their confidence in managing health conditions, overcoming challenges, and pursuing meaningful goals.
