Workplace Wellbeing Sessions
CC&S provides a comprehensive peer support and well-being service through weekly group meetings, focused sessions and wellbeing in the workplace sessions. Our goal is to assist individuals with their mental health, social connections, and emotional well-being. We understand that individuals require various options to address their well-being needs; often by connecting with like-minded individuals in a welcoming and secure environment where they can share experiences and offer support without judgment. Additionally, we acknowledge the importance of a personalised approach, and our focused well-being sessions serve as an extension of this, offering adaptable resources to help individuals prioritise their self-care requirements as well as care for those around them.
About our Focused Wellbeing sessions
Our Focused Wellbeing sessions support mums to reflect on their self care habits in their everyday living. We understand that most of the caring responsibilities fall on mum, especially whilst on maternity leave and often beyond and we feel it is important to equip our members with healthy habits they can implement outside of our group sessions, so that they can keep giving to their families from a place of overflow and not depletion. Our wellbeing sessions are held once a month at our Heaton Norris session in Stockport. SK4 1JA
About our weekly sessions
Our weekly peer support sessions aim to offer a supportive space where mums (and dads on the walk and talk) can come together and share experiences with each other with no judgement. The sessions aim to be uplifting; we laugh a lot, we are open and honest, we are a safe space if you need to vent or cry, but we really aim to reassure, to support any thoughts of self doubt or worry over your efforts of being a good parent.

Community Connection
Open to women at any stage of motherhood
My initial thoughts were that the group would be for new mums, so mums with children aged 0-2 yrs. However, I really had no real plan in which direction it would go. The project has grown organically and adapted to the needs of the women who attend. The group is open to all women at any stage of motherhood. so it doesn’t matter how old your children are, YOU ARE WELCOME!
Social Media
As well as the group sessions we also have a closed Facebook group that encourages women to share their concerns or experiences but also offer each other advice. Not everyone can get to the group session so this is another support resource for them to use.
Here is what a couple of the mums have said about attending the group –

Children are welcome
Pre School children are welcome with parents who are also in the perinatal phase of parenting and we have a nice space for them too. We also open our sessions up to the whole family in the holidays and facilitate family sessions to keep that connection.
