Launched in 2014 in partnership with Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust, ‘Girls on Side’ is a women’s only mental wellbeing programme that delivers inclusive activities in a safe and welcoming environment for like-minded women to learn new skills, make new friends and become more physically active. The programme is currently supported by property-company Bruntwood.
The programme delivers a range of holistic activities on a weekly basis, from baking to self- defense classes, to yoga and origami. These activities look at supporting participants’ social, physical and mental health and wellbeing as well as aid on-going recovery.
The Girls On Side programme has been proven to help its participants improve their psychological wellbeing, lose weight and reduce their use of medication under guidance from their GP.
