Local Support Services

Sheffield Pregnancy Counselling Support service

The Sheffield Pregnancy Counselling Support service is a free counselling service run by trained volunteers and is for women conflicted by an unplanned pregnancy who are struggling to make a decision,  and for those who are suffering from post abortion mental health problems.

Both IAPT and Jessops bereavement midwives have signposted to the service in recent months. Patients are invited to self- refer via the website.

Living with Dementia

The Hollies Medical Centre and our neighbouring GP practices have partnered with Voluntary Action Sheffield and the Sheffield Dementia Action Alliance to provide a local, accessible and informal ‘hub’ to pull these organisations together and benefit our patients and carers.

Starting from December the ‘Porter Valley Dementia Café’ will run alternate Thursdays at Bent’s Green Church. There will be tea, coffee and refreshments available and we have plans for guest speakers, activities and the opportunity to meet others affected by Dementia. There will be friendly experts on hand to discuss your challenges and help signpost you to any support you feel you could benefit from.

Have a look at the Dementia Cafe web page for more information.
