On Friday 7th November, I had the pleasure of visiting Starfish Health and Wellbeing, located at 6–8 Yarm Road, Stockton-on-Tees, TS18 3NA.

I was warmly welcomed by Peter Mayes and Catherine Wakeling, who kindly gave me a tour of their wonderful spaces and introduced me to some of the service users.

Starfish Health and Wellbeing are doing incredible work — their team is dedicated, compassionate, and deeply experienced in supporting wellbeing and mental health. They provide free support in a warm, safe and encouraging environment, and it’s clear to see the difference they make in people’s lives every single day.

In just 1.5 years, they’ve supported 64 young people into work or education, and specifically in Stockton, 90 young people have been referred to Starfish for help — with 30 already achieving positive progressions. These are exceptional results, especially considering many of those supported were some distance from the job market.
Starfish truly understand that poor mental health is part of being human — and that with the right support, everyone can learn, grow, and achieve their potential.

If you’re a local business with potential employment or training opportunities, I’d highly recommend reaching out to Starfish Health and Wellbeing. They are a fantastic organisation making a real and measurable difference in our community.

🎃 This Halloween, we're celebrating courage, growth, and transformation!

While others dress up as ghosts and ghouls, the young people we support are facing real-life fears and overcoming them. Whether it's building confidence, learning new skills, or coming to Starfish for the first time, their progress is anything but make-believe.

At Starfish Academy, we believe every young person deserves the chance to thrive, not just survive. This spooky season, we're proud to stand beside them as they turn challenges into change. 🕸️✨

If you'd like support with your next steps and learn how to face your fears like a boss, reach out to our Academy!

🎃 Halloween at SAFE Group was a spook-tacular success! 👻

From food-based games that had everyone laughing... and almost crying due to spice levels, to tables full of tasty treats and biscuit decorating! We even had the infamous 'Monster House' film playing to get the vibes going!

Take a look at some of the decorated biscuits our young people created!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined in and made the event so memorable! 🕸️✨
