Firstly, I am absolutely delighted and proud to announce that my husband Mark, one of our members and a driving force behind our rapid growth has been elected on to the Board of Governors for the Tees Esk Wear Valley NHS Trust. I may have reason to be a little bit biased however, I can without doubt say his dedication towards helping vulnerable people in the community and especially in supporting those with substance misuse issues is outstanding. You will be an absolute asset to this board with your stance on decency, inclusion and first class service delivery. Well done and here's a few messages from others that think the same:
PS: I'm so pleased for Mark if anyone deserves this he does, he was so kind to be our sacrifice for first aid training he is a wonderful funny guy and he gave me advice when i needed it about a matter i was stuck with. So pleased Mark and hope you will go on to do all the wonderful things you do for all that needs it you're one in a million Mark, as we in yorkshire say, chuffed to bits.
MR, Community Link worker: well done Mark, the gentle giant who is always working behind the scenes. So deserved xx
Dadlg Durham: Congratulations Mark - and all the very best in your new role! Well Done!!
KS CDS: Would like to extend huge congratulations to Mark Williams for securing his place on the board of Governors at TEWV Trust. Well done mate and well deserved. Also many thanks for all you do behind the scenes for EDRAW and all of the Easington community.....I take my hat off to you.......(writes a mean book as well, I`m told).

Under the umbrella of ED RAW we are looking to develop a Befriending & Mentoring scheme. We are currently exploring a multi-agency approach and hope to work closely with both Statutory and Voluntary Sector partners to provide an effective and lasting intitiative.
The Scheme will include the recruitment and training of Volunteers and work to achieving the Approved Provider Standard in partnership with the Mentoring & Befriending Foundation.
The scheme will look to work with members of our community who are vulnerable, isolated and also with offenders returning from prison in an attempt to reintergate them back into our community, and to support them establish constructive and worthwhile futures for themselves and their families. As with all EDRAW intitiatives this scheme will use the 5 ways to Wellbeing as its foundation.

ED RAW new Mentoring Project
Under the umbrella of ED RAW we are looking to develop a Befriending & Mentoring scheme. We are currently exploring a multi-agency approach and hope to work closely with both Statutory and Voluntary Sector partners to provide an effective and lasting intitiative.
This vision fits extremely well with the ED RAW ethos of Inclusion for all and supporting the most vulnerable in our community.
The scheme will look to work with members of our community who are vulnerable, isolated and also with offenders returning from prison in an attempt to reintergate them back into our community, and to support them establish constructive and worthwhile futures for themselves and their families. As with all EDRAW intitiatives this scheme will use the 5 ways to Wellbeing as its foundation.
