We’re Here To Help You

Future SELPH is a mental and emotional wellbeing service for young people aged 16 to 25 in Wakefield

Welcome

At Future SELPH, we provide free and tailored support to young people aged 16 to 25 experiencing difficulties with their mental and emotional wellbeing.

From listening to young people every day, we know that some services don’t quite fit or feel difficult to access at times. Your past experiences or personal challenges can make your mental and emotional wellbeing worse, so that’s why our teams will do all they can to make you feel heard, valued and ready to navigate life’s challenges, side by side.

This service is available to young people registered with a GP practice in Wakefield District.

Why Future SELPH works

I’m starting to see that I can feel good about myself, and that I deserve it

“I understand that I can live with this stuff, good and bad, and that there are others just like me. I hope that everyone who feels like me can speak to someone at SELPH. It’s a gamechanger. Thank you!”

I started SELPH and I wasn’t sure what I wanted out of life

“I had no support. I just didn’t want to be here no more. SELPH allowed me to get the support to get better and it allowed me to be brought out of my shell and talk to others. It also allowed me to figure out what I wanted to do with my life and it allowed me to believe in myself.”

I started this group when I was in a bad place

“I didn’t go out even with people like I knew, current friends and stuff, cos I had no self-confidence and that. SELPH has helped me build on that confidence and given me confidence to meet new people and learn new skills, life skills to help me throughout life.”

SELPH changed me as a person

but not only as a person it changed me with my mental health, for me to see different ways for me to deal with it.

They offered me a lot of support like around my mental health

“They got me into counselling and just gave me extra support that I needed, which, I don’t feel any other agencies gave me that support before.”

Every young persondeserves the tools and support to feel good and live a vibrant life. No matter what!
