🔔 We are pleased to share that our Connecting Communities project has now moved into the Redruth, Pool and Camborne area.

Connecting Communities (VIP) is a three-year project funded by the National Lottery Community Fund. The project aims to support individuals to connect with existing resources and activities that help reduce social isolation and improve health and wellbeing.

🔔 As part of the project, we will be offering our Veteran-Led bespoke confidence, motivation, and resilience courses free of charge, which provides a valuable opportunity for individuals to strengthen their connection with the local community.

Each programme is designed to support people to recognise their value within the community and discover what they can gain from it, breaking down barriers, improving confidence and regain a sense of purpose and self-worth. In doing so, we help people to look at things differently and focus on what they can do rather than what they can’t do.

💛The project is available to all ages and abilities and there is no requirement to be a veteran to take part.

⭐For more information please contact Mitch Inglis, Community Engagement Officer

A special thank you to for creating and nurturing these spaces where people feel safe, celebrated, and empowered to share their gifts.
Also a massive thank you to for their kindness and always looking out for others.
People like you make the world a better place.

Providing a platform for voices to be heard and authenticity to shine 💜

🌼 Happy St David’s Day! 🌼

Today we celebrate Saint David, the patron saint of Wales, and all things Welsh — from rich culture and heritage to the values of kindness, resilience, and community.

At Riverside Support Service Ltd, we love recognising days that bring people together and celebrate identity, diversity, and belonging. Whether you’re enjoying traditional Welsh food, wearing a daffodil or leek, or simply taking a moment to appreciate the beauty of Welsh history and language, today is a lovely reminder of the importance of community spirit.

💜 “Gwnewch y pethau bychain mewn bywyd” — Do the little things in life.
A powerful message from St David that reflects the small acts of care and compassion that make a big difference every day.

Wishing everyone a joyful and peaceful St David’s Day from the Riverside team 🌼

🌼 Self-Care Sunday: Spend Time Outdoors

💜Tip: Step outside, breathe deeply, and let nature reset your energy.

💜Why it Matters:
Natural light and fresh air boost mood, improve sleep, and lower stress. Even 10 minutes outdoors can bring calm and clarity.

💜Practical Guidance:

Take a short walk, sit in the garden, or listen to birdsong.

Notice sights, smells, and sounds — grounding your senses helps release tension.

Leave your phone behind for a deeper sense of peace.

💜Reflection for the Week:
“How did spending time outdoors affect your energy and focus?”

💜Extra Tip:
If you can’t get outside, open a window and take slow, mindful breaths.

✨ We have a new home ✨

We are so excited to share that Riverside Support Service Ltd now has a new office, a space built on compassion, community, and positivity.

This isn’t just an office. It’s a place where ideas will grow, support is strengthened, and people come together to make a real difference.
A safe and welcoming hub for our team, the people we support, and our wider community.

After years of growing, learning, and supporting others, it feels incredibly special to begin setting our roots down and building something even more wonderful for the future.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of our journey so far, we wouldn’t be here without you. 💜

Here’s to new beginnings, stronger foundations, and continuing to support our community with heart.

💙 Emotional Health Day 💙

Today is Emotional Health Day — a reminder that our emotions matter just as much as our physical health.

Taking care of your emotional wellbeing means giving yourself permission to feel, to rest, to talk, and to ask for support when you need it. There’s no “right” way to feel, and no timeline for coping, everyone’s journey is different.

At Riverside Support, we believe emotional health is built through understanding, compassion, and connection. By listening without judgement and supporting one another, we can help create safe spaces where people feel valued and heard.

Be gentle with yourself today and every day. Your feelings are valid. 💜

🌼 Self-Care Sunday: Pamper Without Pressure

💜Tip: Comfort isn’t luxury — it’s care. You deserve softness, too.

💜Why it Matters:
Gentle pampering reminds caregivers that self-kindness is essential, not optional. It signals your body and mind that you are worthy of rest.

💜Practical Guidance:

Take a warm bath, apply a face mask, or simply curl up in your favourite blanket.

Add candles or calming scents like lavender for a soothing atmosphere.

Avoid turning self-care into a to-do list — keep it light and enjoyable.

💜Reflection for the Week:
“What moments of comfort helped you feel most relaxed or cared for?”

💜Extra Tip:
Pampering can be simple — even brushing your hair slowly or making a favourite drink counts.

🐾 National Love Your Pet Day – 20th 🐾

Today we’re celebrating our friends who bring so much joy, comfort, and companionship into our lives.

Pets have an incredible way of lifting our spirits, easing loneliness, and making even the hardest days feel a little brighter. Whether it’s a wagging tail, a gentle purr, or simply being by our side, the love they give is truly unconditional.

At Riverside Support, we see first-hand the positive impact pets can have on wellbeing, routine, and emotional health. Today is the perfect day to give them an extra cuddle, a favourite treat, or a little extra love.

Because they’re not just pets — they’re family 🐶🐱💜
