We offer a bereavement counselling service to Horley PCN patients in partnership with St Catherine’s Hospice. Patients are referred by their GP and invited to meet with a St Catherine’s volunteer counsellor to talk about what prompted them to take up bereavement counselling, how they are and how the team can support them.

Our group of volunteers promote healthy lifestyles by inspiring others to take a more active role in their health. They are sources of information on all aspects of health and wellbeing and are able to signpost people to services and support others to make positive behavioural changes.

Supporting CYP’s and their families at an early stage to help them to navigate the system, and therefore prevent mental health conditions from escalating.
Among the problems the team can assist with are mild mental health problems, low mood, low self-esteem, bullying and behavioural problems. While they’re not able to offer counselling services they can offer a holistic approach and can provide valued support while children await referral appointments.
A year ago, this was an overgrown and unusable area and now the community garden is used all year round. Alliance for Better Care, Horley PCN and Growing Health Together staff continue to use the space for breaks, alongside all of the local groups who meet at the Horley Health Hub. The area has hosted a variety of events and is looked after by our regular volunteers including the fantastic Birchwood Volunteer Health Champions. Ground works have started for an outdoor hut and garden room.

Proactive health and care intervention at individual and population level. It is proactive care and support, targeted at people living with frailty, multi-morbidity and/or complex needs to help them stay independent and healthy for as long as possible at home or the place they call home focusing on what is important to the individual.
We welcome a growing number of volunteers to our community garden every Friday. The team help to maintain the garden and the growing number of exciting projects. Our sessions are a safe space for people to also meet others and make new connections.
Growing Health Together invites people living and working in communities across East Surrey to collaborate, in order to co-create conditions in which everyone’s health and wellbeing can flourish. We’re proud founding partners for the initiative and are committed to ensuring that health and wellbeing exists outside of the formal health service, in the places we live. From walking groups, coffee mornings and mutual aid groups, through to our local parks, lakes and wild spaces, there is so much close at hand to support our wellbeing.

The Hub has hosted health check clinics for patients who may have difficulty accessing their GP services. In a relaxed setting, walk-in sessions provide the opportunity to receive vaccinations and access basic health checks including blood pressure, BMI and speak to someone about general wellbeing. The team are also able to signpost people to relevant services and support that is available at their local practice.
We have partnered with Holly Health to offer patients 12 months of free habit coaching (to help sleep, exercise, eating and mental wellbeing). The app may serve as an extra tool to help feel physically and mentally better.
In 2020, during the midst of the pandemic, we had the opportunity to bring new life to a disused building in the heart of Horley in Surrey. The two-storey building was initially used to host a Clinical Decision Unit, a vital resource in assessing patients during the pandemic and soon became home to the Alliance for Better Care, Healthy Horley Primary Care Network and Growing Health Together teams. All three shared the ambition to create a new community hub that would help to transform the way people manage their health in their community.
Since its launch, the venue has become home to many initiatives and we are proud of the positive impact that the space continues to have on people’s health and wellbeing.
The Hub is proud to house the masterpieces created by the residents of Smallbrook Care Home and Horley Infant School as part of the Intergenerational Art Project. Visitors can see the pieces throughout the building.
Working in partnership with the team at Level Up, we host Gaming Cafes at our Horley Health Hub for 11 to 15 year-olds. Activities include Minecraft, Fortnite, Lego Mindstorms, coding, and 3D printing.
Upcoming sessions:
Friday 1st August | 10am – 12:30am and 1:30pm – 4pm.

A time to meet, pursue practical interests at leisure, to practice skills and enjoy making and mending. The difference is that garden sheds and their activities are often solitary in nature while Men’s Sheds is the opposite. This project is about social connections and friendship building, sharing skills and knowledge, and of course a lot of laughter.
The Men’s Sheds group meet every Tuesday from 9am – 3pm. Find out more about the Men’s Sheds initiative.
