Services provided:
Common Wheel offers two areas of activity: bike recycling workshops and music workshops. The specific objectives of both activities are to:
- Learn new skills
Both the bike recycling and music workshops provide an opportunity for participants to develop life skills such as confidence, communication, following instructions and team work, as well as specific skills. - Reduce isolation
Isolation is a common problem experienced by people living with mental illness. We give people a reason to get up in the morning and connect with their local community. - Improve self-belief
One of the largest barriers to moving on, either to employment or another vocational activity is lack of self-belief; our project empowers people and shows them what they can achieve. - Improve mental wellbeing
All of our activities help to improve our participants’ overall wellbeing and help them to re-integrate into the community.
If you would like to join one of their projects, please ask your mental healthcare professional or GP to contact them.
If you would like to refer someone to Common Wheel, please contact the relevant member of staff to make an appointment. You can download and print a referral form or ask us to send you one.
