Community Navigators

About our service

The Community Navigator is a free service based at the Psychological Assessment and Therapy Service (PATS). We work alongside:

  • the Complex Trauma Network
  • all of Health and Community Services
  • third sector organisations coming into contact with survivors of childhood trauma 

Our team includes 4 Community Navigators based within the wider team of PATS.

We'll treat you with care, consideration, dignity and respect and offer choices in the service we provide wherever possible.

Who we help and what we offer

We help adult survivors of childhood trauma with their recovery needs. Our aim is to promote sustainable recovery and wellbeing with the support of voluntary organisations.

If you have been affected by childhood trauma, our team can help you identify and establish meaningful engagement. We offer support for up to 6 months to signpost and support you towards creating a life worth living within your community.
