Overview

The Southeast Provider Collaborative is a group of grassroots wellbeing providers working together and supporting each other to deliver high quality experiences focussed on helping people with their mental wellbeing.  The approach is holistic, person centred and relational rather than clinical.  It helps people get more control over their healthcare, to manage their needs and in a way that suits them.

We have identified a demand to enable people in need of mental health support to access and participate in the community based provision offered by the Southeast Derbyshire Provider Collaborative.  We help and encourage participants to use a range of transport options developing independence.  For some participants whether for physical or mental health reasons door to door car transport is required.
