The People Focused Group We are pioneers in the power of peer support who are embracing a new way to deliver community support. At The People Focused Group (PFG Doncaster) everyone is a member and a peer supporter. Peer Support is simple. We are all helpers and people being helped. It might be cheering someone up with a smile, or helping with something more practical. Our home is The Wellness Centre where many activities happen. We run Bumping Spaces in Bentley, Denaby and Edlington, these are groups that take place in the community. Peer Pods are our groups that go out together. There is no set timetable for these groups, and we go to many different places. We also run the only peer led mental health crisis service in the UK. Referrals for this are made through the Crisis Team and it is called Safe Space. We’re all different. We’ve all got something to give. We all need each other. -
