East Belfast Crisis Support Services Directory Launch

Launch of 'A Guide to Crisis Support Services in East Belfast'

Today EBP, along with EBCDA and EBIAC, launched a directory of crisis support services in East Belfast. The launch was held in the Larder Foodbank in St. Christophers, on Mersey Street. The idea to produce this came out of a workshop, which took place earlier this year. The aim was to draw together advice/crisis support workers from both the independent community and constituency based political sectors.

What was clear from this workshop, and the information collected since, was that there is a lot of help available in East Belfast – which is more than encouraging. This project highlighted that the problem is often that the community, and workers, don’t know where or what services exist and also how to access these services.

We therefore hope that this directory will provide an improved understanding of East Belfast, in terms of knowing where and where not to go for support. This should allow us to use existing resources better rather than develop new resources and potentially create duplication.
