Groundwork Cheshire, Lancashire, Merseyside - Facebook (17 Sep):
We’ve all been staying at home more recently. It’s only natural if you’ve felt a bit lonely and become less confident and less active.
Roots To Wellbeing can help. Our free programme will give you the support you need to improve your health and feel better about yourself. If you live in Wigan or Leigh and want to rediscover your old self, or create a new you, get in touch today.

I nearly just put Groundwork CLM, Tonker, but knew its full name would mean at least one response.
Today is World Mental Health Day.

Tonker...
"Groundwork Cheshire, Lancashire, Merseyside "
and Greater Manchester?
Yes, thank you - we looked at this on another post and what a bloody snub that the office is in Wigan! Nevertheless, I still put Lancs on my address and urge every other Wiganer to do the same!!! Let us preserve our historic county and not let Government bureaucracy sub-divide us into administration pockets.

JR, Lancashire (as you think of it) has been divided, administratively, for a long, long, time.
Wigan, for instance, hasn't been in Lancashire for centuries.
