Meet our Wellbeing Team
Here at Liberty we are committed to supporting your physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing in any way, shape or form so we have put together some resources that we think might be helpful to our young people to help build their resilience and preparing them for adulthood.
Our staff are trained in drugs awareness and sexual health, we can give out condoms if you need them. We also offer a Free Shop if you need a new outfit for day to day, or looking for something special for a job interview.
We also have many external agencies that come in such as a sexual health nurse and a PCSO. Domestic abuse social workers, St Giles Trust, Early Help and help learners to find safe housing.
Our staff are trained in many areas to help with your wellbeing and mental health such as drug awareness and sexual health, so you can talk to us confidently and get the support you need. Condoms are available if you need them, and we can also signpost you to further sexual health services.
We work closely with a range of external professionals who come in regularly, including a sexual health nurse and a Police Community Support Officer (PCSO), to offer advice, support, and guidance in a friendly and approachable way. Some of the external agencies we collaborate with are; domestic abuse services, social service, St Giles Trust, and Early Help services to support your wellbeing and safety.
If you need extra support, we can help you find safe and secure housing, access other specialist services, and build the knowledge and confidence to make positive, informed choices about your health, relationships, and future.
Please contact our Wellbeing Team, if you need support for any reason.
