Mid and North Powys MIND
Mid and North Powys Mind support young people between the ages of 11 and 25. We operate throughout North Breconshire, Radnorshire and Montgomeryshire, both on a one-to one support basis and by facilitating peer support groups both in person and online.
We support one to one both in and out of schools, and referrals can be by way of self-referral, school, professionals or parents/carers, but must be with the young person's consent and knowledge. Presently we have staff in Llanidloes and Ysgol Calon Cymru, on both Builth Wells and Llandrindod Wells campuses. We work closely with other agencies where this is appropriate, and can refer in-house for bereavement counselling and Active Monitoring, which is designed to provide early intervention mental health support, using a range or pre-prepared CBT resources, via a facilitated self-help model.
