Community Connectors

Community Connector training is our original training session designed to help everyone in Mendip be better equipped to signpost friends, family and neighbours to support in their community. If you live in Mendip, you can book on to the next training via Eventbrite or call the Health Connections team in your area, if you prefer to book by phone. We can also do shorter sessions and adapt them to your needs. We can also do bespoke training in your place of work or community space.

  • One hour training (shorter if you need it to be)
  • Anyone and everyone can be a Connector
  • It is not about being a volunteer but someone in the community who knows that there is support out there.
  • So far we have trained police, taxi drivers, hairdressers, students, doctors, café staff, supermarket staff, parents, grandparents, homeless people, job centre staff ………

“Having the extra knowledge when talking with people who need help and support will be so valuable.” Police Community Support Officer. “This had been a very informative and helpful workshop.  I never knew there was so much support out there!” Community member.
