Tayside
We work closely with the Tayside community to provide early preventatitve support for people who require help with their mental health.
Across Tayside, we support carers in community settings to help them integrate into their local community. Our approach involves supporting carers in overcoming everyday life stresses by ensuring that they are aware of their rights.
We offer guidance, information and a range of support, from emotional support to group sessions.
We work with and build partnerships with other organisations to ensure you receive relevant support and help you achieve your goals. Once you feel comfortable to get more support, we are keen to signpost and support you in taking the next step of your journey.
It’s our goal to make sure you are not facing life’s difficulties alone, especially when poor mental health and mental illness makes it a much bigger task.

It’s like a lifeline. You know every week there’s going to be a phone call and you can tell them exactly what’s wrong. You know if there’s a problem or if you’re in trouble, you can just ring them – which has proved to be extremely helpful in a lot of ways. It’s the bedside manner, they just know. They do stuff off their own backs and they do care. It’s like having a friend as well as somebody to support you.”– Dawn
