2012 Review of Mind Yourself, Wexford Information and Self-Help Scheme

Wexford County Library

This programme was developed with the local HSE Mental Health Unit

The 2012 review of Mind Yourself, Wexford Information and Self-Help Scheme, developed with the local HSE Mental Health Unit shows c2,500 loans per annum from the core recommended stock since the scheme went county wide in mid 2010 following the pilot phase in two libraries. A further recommended reading list, As well as can be, [managing long term conditions] was developed and distributed last year. While reduced resources from both organisations has meant that the programme is stalled at corporate level, community library health-related programming such as a Taking Care of Your Health; Health & Wellbeing Information Day , Project Smile , both in Gorey library recently, is sustaining the programme and continuing to promote the collection until a formal review occurs in 2013.
