🚌 Meet the Transport Members: Starfish Health & Wellbeing CIC 🚌

This week we're shining a spotlight on Starfish Health & Wellbeing CIC, a Stockton-on-Tees organisation supporting young people aged 16–30 across Teesside to build confidence, resilience and life skills. They offer free coaching, advocacy, training and wellbeing support, delivered with compassion and lived experience.

Starfish works with young people to overcome barriers, improve wellbeing and develop both personal and professional skills through tailored one-to-one and group support.

Having recently joined TVRA's Community Transport Scheme, the group has already enjoyed their first trip with us, visiting Beamish Museum for a fantastic day out and the opportunity to connect, learn and make new memories together.

Interested in finding out more about Starfish Health & Wellbeing? Contact their team on 01642 672987.

Or, if you'd like to learn more about TVRA Community Transport, get in touch! 🚐

🌿 Mental Health Awareness Week 🌿

This week is a reminder to slow down, check in with yourself, and support those around you. Small steps can make a big difference to our wellbeing.

💚 Tip of the day: Take a walk in nature
Fresh air, movement, and time outdoors can help reduce stress, improve mood, and bring a sense of calm.

Remember — it’s okay to ask for help, take a break, and prioritise your mental health. You matter, and you are never alone.
