About this grant
Mental health charity Ipsum in Swindon has been awarded £36,000 from our Coronavirus Response and Recovery Fund to help cover its running costs to allow it to stay open, increase its volunteer counsellors and expand its services online to cope with the extra calls for help. The group provides low-cost one-to-one counselling as well as art, music and writing therapy groups. Chief executive Julie Mattinson said: “We are seeing a significant increase in frontline workers coming to us during the pandemic because they are struggling.
