Adult Emotional Health & Wellbeing Details of help and services on offer for Adults during Coronavirus (Covid-19) to help manage life in lock down and during the pandemic. Covid-19 is affecting all of us in all sorts of ways, but while services may have had to change shape and focus we want to let you know that there is support available. As part of its #StayConnected campaign for all Adults living in Neath Port Talbot, these pages will highlight a whole range of emotional and wellbeing services, helplines and support to meet whatever the worry or need that arises. Whatever the question or worry, however silly or trivial it might seem to some, it's about helping a person deal with what matters and what is happening to them. Keeping Adults safe If you are worried about the safety of an Adult, services are available throughout the pandemic. The Single Point Of Contact (SPOC) Service is basically the front door to Early Help and Social Services. Anyone can contact the SPOC team to have a discussion and get help. A member of the team will listen to you and let you know what information, advice or assistance can be provided and who can help from social services, health, education, police, early intervention and prevention services and the third sector. If you do not feel safe or are worried you can contact the SPOC team Telephone (Open 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Thursday and 4.30pm on a Friday) The service is currently operating a ‘call back system’ which asks people to leave a message and then a member of the team will get back to you.

Talking to people who make you feel safe and you can trust is important. If you can, talk with a person you trust at home. If this isn't possible, don't worry. There are lots of safe spaces where you can talk online or over the phone. There's no need to feel nervous because we all need someone to talk to, ask questions and get the information we need to be happy, healthy and safe. There are plenty of ways to chat, ask questions and seek advice. We are here to help where we can, with worries or questions you may have - no issue is too big or too small and we will always try to help. Many services are still running to make sure people who use our services can be happy, healthy and safe, and get what they need from us. You can still get in touch with us for the things you need.
