Our Personal Welfare Team Has Been on the Road!

CISWO’s Personal Welfare team has been busy travelling across the UK, meeting with communities and raising awareness of the support available to former coal miners and their families.

Brenda, Marcia, and Debbie — three dedicated members of the team — have been visiting key locations to connect with individuals who may benefit from CISWO’s services.

These visits are part of our ongoing commitment to ensuring that people with a mining background know about the tailored help we offer, including wellbeing support, financial guidance, and practical advice.

Recent Visits Included:

  • Kings Mill Hospital – Mansfield
  • Ashgate Hospice – Chesterfield
  • Amble Development Trust – Northumberland

Each visit has provided an opportunity to speak directly with local people, share information about CISWO’s work, and listen to the needs of former miners and their families.

Whether it’s helping someone access benefits, offering emotional support, or simply being a friendly face to talk to, our team is here to make a difference.

If you or someone you know has worked in mining and could benefit from our support, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help — and we’re only a phone call or email away.
