Neath Together

The Wallich’s dedicated team at Neath Port Talbot Prevention and Wellbeing Service (PAWS) supports people in the community at risk of homelessness or face insecure housing.

Our team of trauma-informed experts works closely with Neath Port Talbot Council Housing Options, WCADA, Platfform, Salvation Army and more to help people access the best opportunities available, for a better quality of life.

The Wallich’s Thursday drop-in service at the Ambassador Hotel in Neath provides one-to-one support, advice and signposting for help with things like housing, budgeting, physical and mental health, wellbeing and planning for the future.

We also facilitate referrals to other relevant services such as counselling or addressing substance use.

We truly believe the community benefits when all services embody a #NeathTogether approach, working collaboratively together to support people and using every resource available in the area.
