INTRODUCTION

Back on track is a registered charity supporting people recovering from a mental health problem and are based in North Walsham in North Norfolk.

We are a voluntary group staffed by ordinary people who are living with or have suffered from a mental illness.  We aim to encourage, motivate and support others to relive an enjoyable, purposeful and rewarding life through self help.

We have a club atmosphere with individual support when needed.  It is a membership based group but with no charges, although there may be a nominal charge when we get permanent premises.  People wanting to become members must be over the age of 16; there are no other requirements.

At present we have members from the age of 24 to 60.  We have regular meetings every week with smaller get togethers of members who have found common interests.

Members are treated entirely as ordinary people and mental illness is rarely a topic of conversation, (although it can help to talk to someone who has the same problems).  New members are made to feel comfortable straight away.

We are a very active group regularly doing things like ten pin bowling, fishing, golf, karting, snooker, tennis etc. and if we can find suitable premises we will include gardening, movies and board games etc.  You don't have to be active  however, to be part of the group, you can just watch and have a chat if you want to.

We can provide work experience in hand with a local company and can also offer a reduced cost holiday away.

If  you want to do more than watch t.v. and take pills, get "Back on Track" and give me a call.

You can contact me either by phone 07919 232904 or e-mail ken@kenwalker5.wanadoo.co.uk or use the contact page on this website.
