North Staffordshire
Wellbeing College
We love to talk and connect with people so if you have any questions or would like to discuss the college, or how you can get involved then please don’t hesitate to get in touch through any of the options below.
At the Wellbeing College, we believe people are experts of their own experience. We aim to support students to recognise and develop their own inner resources to improve and manage their own wellbeing.
Our workshops are open to anyone aged 18+ residing in Stoke-on-Trent, Newcastle-under-Lyme and the Staffordshire Moorlands.
The workshops are provided for free.
No, you do not need to be referred. As a student, you will need to enrol each time a new prospectus comes out.
At enrolment, we want to know about you, what your strengths and interests are and your reasons for wanting to engage with the Wellbeing College. The appointment is also an opportunity for you to find out more about us and what we do.
The Wellbeing College workshops offer a safe and supportive learning environment to explore what wellbeing means to you. All of our workshops are designed to inspire hope and empower students to explore, consider and discover what is useful and valuable to them.
Group sizes are kept small so typical group sizes are between 8 -12 students. Please check with us if this is something you are concerned about.
No. We understand that students may have missed out on education. There are no formal entry requirements and we don’t ask you to take notes, read or speak out loud in a workshop if you don’t feel comfortable.
If you still have questions, you are welcome to contact us and we’ll be happy to help.
You can call 111 any day of the week at any time to speak to a member of our 24/7 Crisis Resolution Home Treatment Team.
