Spotlight on… Bell View

Spotlight on… Bell View

As part of our Information and Signposting Service, we’re shining a spotlight on voluntary and community organisations offering all kinds of support to people in Northumberland.

Bell View is an independent charity based in North Northumberland. It offers a range of health, wellbeing, and social activities from its Resource Centre and from community spaces across the region. The Resource Centre has a community café with free internet access and is a Warm Space offering tea, coffee, cake and soup. A range of activities are on offer including arts and crafts, exercise, digital support and much more.

Bell View provides Day Care services, five days a week in Belford and on a Monday in Berwick, which is a fantastic day out with activities, care and support and a hot lunch. Wheelchair accessible transport is provided which means a full day out for clients and a full day off for those caring for loved ones. Bell View also has a CQC registered care provider, Help at Home, delivering personal care and enabling support across the whole region.

For more information please email: Daycare@bellviewbelford.co.uk or telephone 01668 219221.

Annual Survey Drop In – Belford

Annual Survey Drop In – Belford

We will be in Belford on Wednesday 13 March with our annual survey. Come and meet us at The Bell View Centre between 1.30pm and 3.00pm and share your experiences of health and social care over the last 12 months.

You can share your thoughts and experiences as a patient or as a carer. Your feedback will help us set our work priorities for the coming year. Knowing what is important to you helps us to work more effectively on your behalf. We can also look at trends and themes year on year, seeing what has changed and what remains important to people.

You could also be in with a chance of winning one of three prizes when you take the time to tell us about your experiences.

Thank you for your support and we hope you can call in to see us.
