We show people how their lives could be different by providing them with immediate, practical help and signposting them to services they may need, such as mental health support, physical wellbeing, jobs, training or housing.
This helps them regain a sense of purpose, identity and hope. If our work saves one person’s life, then we’ve done enough.
Testimonials from those we’ve supported
“My husband’s mental health has been a struggle for him and myself for over 50 years. When he joined the Combat2Coffee group, he found a place where he belongs and they helped him to get the attention of the NHS through OpCourage.
As he has Asperger Syndrome it has often been thought that most of his traits are due to this, however, after being seen by an OpCourage occupational therapist, it was thought that he suffers from Hypervigilance. This makes sense to me as he lives his life that way. If he had never met the Combat2Coffee team, this course of action would never have happened.”
“It’s no exaggeration to say you’ve saved our family. I honestly don’t think we’d have made it through these last few months without your support, so my gratitude is boundless. Granted the referrals have taken too long to bear fruit but we’ve known that help is coming, and that has taken a lot of pressure off.”
