Thank you to our incredible partners

Touch Network

We share real life stories of everyday people. Everyday people who keep going through hard times and come out the other side. Through providing a platform to share and hear stories at storytelling events in coffee shops, restaurants and bars, we cheer each other on and learn from one another. In doing so, we feel more inspired, hopeful and resilient. We feel more able to get through our own hard times.

Round About Cafe

In 2013, the Mansbridge community was reeling from the closure of the Ford factory and facing a number of challenges. Radian listened to local residents then worked with them to set up a café where people could volunteer, learn new skills, access employment support, improve health and wellbeing, get online, build social networks and enjoy great quality, homemade food and drink.Since then, over 50 volunteers have helped to develop and lead a range of projects to support the local community and meet local needs. They go all out to offer a warm welcome and great food and as a result, we’ve seen lives transformed and friendships blossom. As one resident put it, ‘‘No’ isn’t something we say here!’

The Hampshire Anxiety Clinic

Hello and welcome, my name is Mike Ward and I specialise in the treatment of the whole spectrum of anxiety disorders. Having spent much time working therapeutically, helping individuals through trauma. I decided to set up two clinics dedicated to the treatment of anxiety. These are, The Hampshire anxiety clinic in Chandlers Ford Hampshire and The London anxiety clinic in Harley Street, both are very popular.

Now, we don’t just talk about anxiety, we work in many different ways and bring along a range of approaches, including neuroscience and biology. Along with the traditional methods of talking therapies, we include how to use posture, physiology, the nervous system and nutrition to assist our clients in  learning new behaviours and adaptive processes.  To find out more come along and have a chat with Mike!
