The Community Support Service is person centred and provides flexible mobile community-based support services for people who are living independently, but not necessarily alone, in their community. The services are for people living with mental illness who require support in relation to family and whānau, community living, education, employment and self-management of their wellbeing.
The Napier & Hastings Lighthouse are community-based centres that provide opportunities to meet others, take part in activities and have a cuppa. The Lighthouse provides information and supports access to community support services.
Lighthouse activities help clients to connect with each other, build self-confidence and become valued members of the community.
The Day Activity Programme provides a recovery-oriented service to assist people with mental illness to develop their life and living skills and enjoy their relationships with others. The day activities that make up a programme are determined largely by the person’s needs and aligned with their individual goals.
