Trusts, Foundations and local supporters

How you can support our work

Charitable trusts and foundations are valued partners of EWG Counselling. By supporting key aspects of our care they are major contributors to the benefits that local community members receive from EWG.

We are always grateful for the support of organisations and trusts who can see the very real benefit the community gains from a holistic approach to mental health support.

Trusts, foundations and local supporters can support our organisation in our main current aim of supporting our community in reducing levels of anxiety and depression in Wigan.

You can do this by :

  • Funding the decoration of our rooms and seating areas for the benefit and comfort of community members

  • Awarding grants to fund ongoing projects

  • Contributing towards the core costs of our organisation

  • Funding staff posts to further improve our services, such as a new specialist counsellor

Grant-makers can enable EWG to support people with Depression and Anxiety to make positive changes in their lives and to receive much needed support in a number of ways. EWG Counselling are committed to maximising the beneficial outcomes achieved by every grant we receive.

Some examples of funding we
need support with:

  • Our free weekly peer group support sessions are an effective support tool for community members who are suffering from anxiety and depression, peers can talk through their situations and work on positive change with the support of the group counsellor. It costs us £370 to continue this project each month.

  • Our free weekly live chat drop in services is an anonymous, instant message drop in service where community members can talk directly with a counsellor for 30 to 45 minutes about anything that is affecting their mental health. It costs us £810 per month to continue this project each month.

  • Our core costs excluding staff support (utilities and rent) costs us £1,300 per month.
