We're Different
At Phoenix Health and Wellbeing we do things a little differently
We’re a charity…
Phoenix Health and Wellbeing is a charitable social enterprise (registered CIO 1154273) that was set up in 2013 with the aim of providing support to local people in Leeds who have chronic mental, physical & emotional health issues and low incomes.
We are proud to report that each year we offer support to 750+ local people who are referred to us by medical and healthcare professionals. The clients all have low incomes and so could not afford this massage, counselling or acupuncture support on the open market. They come along with conditions ranging from depression and anxiety to more physical conditions such as chronic pain, Parkinson’s disease or forms of cancer. They can have a range of complex needs and many experience low self-esteem, anxiety and social isolation.
… and a social enterprise
Our organisation is funded by social enterprise. We do not receive any regular statutory funding. Instead we offer the same excellent services to the general public and local employers who pay the market rate. The proceeds from these activities are then directed to our charitable work.
We are governed by a Board of Trustees and hold several quality marks from relevant professional bodies.
We’re here to help you feel good
We understand that no two people are the same. Even if we experience a similar situation to someone else, how we respond to it is different and how it affects us is different. We believe that the best support recognises this, and that is why we offer a range of services including: massage, counselling, acupuncture & workplace wellbeing.
Our team of therapists, counsellors and acupuncturists are highly experienced and all share the same motivation: to help you feel good.
We support you, you support them
All proceeds from every massage, acupuncture or counselling session you have with us are directed to our charitable fund. Local businesses using our workplace wellbeing services are also helping to fund our charitable work.
For every £10 that you spend or donate, about £4 goes towards our charitable work
