WIRED is youth service providing intervention, education and training in supporting young people’s mental health and emotional wellbeing. We work directly with vulnerable and at-risk adolescents in parallel with equipping their wider communities and professionals in the sector. Services are delivered in BCP and the wider Dorset surrounding areas.

The Fuse Project

• • The Fuse Project aims to support young people’s wellbeing and mental health by building a mentoring relationship and learning new skills through the five steps to wellbeing framework.
  • Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Area: Mentees aged between 11-18 years old who live in BCP can meet with their mentor in the community once a week for six consecutive weeks.
  • Dorset Council Area :Mentees aged between 11-18 years old who live in Dorset Council area can access the online version of the project. This achieves the same aims but swaps in-person Meet Ups for a virtual mentoring experience.

Parent Awareness Workshops

All parent awareness workshops promote mental health awareness and provide a safe space to gain essential knowledge of how mental health impacts the lives of young people, to ask questions and learn practical ways of support.
