Staff
|
|
The Harmony team are led by Service Manager, Caroline Gamble who has a wealth of experience and knowledge of the mental health sector and charities, having worked in this area for many years.
Harmony staff are employed to work in Harmony Drop In and The Community Front Room. They are highly professional and bring a range of experience from mental health nurses, mental health practitioners to peer specialists. As with the ethos of Harmony, the staff are welcoming, friendly and non judgemental, providing confidential support to all who access our services. |
Volunteers
Volunteers are an integral part of The Burrough Harmony Centre, and we benefit from the wide range of expertise, skills and knowledge they bring to our services whether it is arts and crafts, cookery, leading a meditation session, individual support or administration support.
We believe everyone can contribute!
Many of our volunteers have lived experience of mental ill health, so truly understand why we do the work we do.

One of our volunteers story:
Judy started volunteering with Harmony when she was coming up to retirement. The reason she became a volunteer was because she wanted to be helpful and of service to the community. What she found was that a visitor couldn’t tell who was a member of staff or volunteer and who was using the service for support. There was no ‘them & us’. People felt comfortable, and could talk with each other and not always about their problems. Judy didn’t think she had any talents or skills to offer, but is now running a meditation group and brings music and dance into the group! What makes Harmony special is the friendliness and being able to communicate what is happening in their lives, there is no bad feelings and always a good atmosphere. Harmony encourages to do something for someone else.
