What makes us different?

KeyRing in Sandwell is unique to other services, alongside the more traditional support services we offer community support. Community support includes our community hub session and building network’s of connection across the Sandwell area.

We believe that every person has something to offer and we can link you in with other people within our service for you to offer/receive support.

If you would like to be part of KeyRing, you are more than welcome to attend our community hub sessions. Any member of the community is welcomed to attend these sessions.

Warwickshire Short Term Support

KeyRing offers a 12 week support service for adults across Warwickshire.

The service is for people who do not receive any other support but would benefit from some help with a particular issue such as bereavement, hoarding, addiction, housing issues, criminal justice, self-esteem issues, or self-harm/neglect.

We will work with each person to create a 12 week plan which will be regularly reviewed.

Support is flexible and can be provided in a variety of ways including:

• one to one support
• group support
• peer mentoring
• support through messaging, online forums and video calls
• telephone support
• drop-ins

Grimsby Networks

Grimsby, also Great Grimsby, is a large coastal English seaport in North East Lincolnshire. It ran the largest fishing fleet in the world by the mid-20th century, but fishing declined dramatically after the Cod Wars denied UK access to Icelandic fishing grounds.

Grimsby is the main cultural, shopping and industrial centre for much of northern and eastern Lincolnshire.

Grimsby people are called Grimbarians; the term codhead is also used jokingly, often for Grimsby football supporters. 

Great Grimsby Day is 22 January.

KeyRing have been supporting Grimbarians since 2011. We offer support in many areas including the Willows, Nunsthorpe, Cleethorpes and East & West Marsh. We support people with many different needs who want to live independently. Our Community Enablers can help you with managing your money, looking after your home and helping you to get involved in your community, as well as linking you up with other people in the area.

We have a variety of monthly activities that you can get involved with if you want to.

KeyRing think it is important for you be to be as independent as possible. We can support you in the way that you want.

Our hourly rate is £13.50, and we will consider referrals from anyone.

For more information contact anne.palmer@keyring.org or on 07717 894476.
