NUMBER 11
Number 11 is a lifeline for individuals in our community struggling with a variety of issues, from difficulties with debt and benefits through to isolation, unemployment, bereavement or mental illness. Our focus is on a person centred sustainable approach. Number 11 is a family, so in addition to our workshops or one-to-one support we emphasise eating, playing, laughing and doing life together.
