BDCT Well Together Service

Well Together provides a range of interesting, sociable activities led by dedicated volunteers.

Our activities are free and run across Bradford, Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven, in wheelchair-accessible venues. There are many groups available, including crafting, peer support and walking, and there is no limit to how many of these you can join.

Well Together is for adults aged 18 years or over and we welcome service users with long term health conditions. We do ask that people must be independent enough to leave their home un-aided and be well enough to access an activity in the local community run by a volunteer.


Activities and Walks include:

• Arts and Craft groups
• Coffee mornings
• Creative writing
• Games groups
• Guided relaxation sessions
• Health walks – ranging from 30-90 mins long
• Painting and drawing groups
• Reading groups
• Reminiscence groups
• Singing groups
• Social groups
• Support groups for specific health conditions
• Wellbeing recovery support groups
• Virtual Groups

Well Together Walks training package
Well Together offer a bespoke walk leader training for anyone who would like to become a Volunteer Walk Leader for our service. You will be helping people in your community to get active and healthy, providing vital support that they otherwise might not get. As well as ensuring our walks are friendly, safe, and well run, walk leaders are also ambassadors for walking, showing people that walking really can make a big difference to their lives.

We are always on the look out for volunteers to lead on an Activity group, check out our positions on our webpage, or if you have an idea of a new group, please get in touch welltogether@bdct.nhs.uk
