County Durham Resilience service
The County Durham Resilience service is a community support service for adults (18 years and over).
We aim to build resilience within communities in County Durham. This includes; where people feel lonely and isolated, and have experienced mental health difficulties, which includes those impacted by COVID.
We are here to help people, bridging the gap between services, and helping to improve social wellbeing and mental health.
What is resilience?
Resilience is the ability to cope under pressure. A person who copes under pressure is resilient. The ability to cope well under pressure is based on a positive outlook, combined with strategies to manage pressure.
