EngageEnableMotivateInspire

Offering person-centred support to young people and adults with complex needs and multiple barriers across Cornwall and Devon. 

Konnect Communities brings together a team of people with a broad range of skills and one common goal; to engage with individuals when support is needed.

At Konnect, our team members see the person, not the pieces. We understand how to motivate, inspire and support each person to take the steps they need towards self-care and self-improvement.

What we do

Established in 2014, Konnect offers 1-to-1 client-focused mentoring and support for young people and adults across Cornwall and Devon at a point of vulnerability. Our approach is person-centred and non-judgemental; we see the person, not just the pieces.

We work with people experiencing multiple barriers and complex needs. We provide practical support and advice with the following areas:

When a client comes to us, we work to address and resolve multiple barriers that might prevent them from moving forward. By putting the right support system in place, we can overcome these barriers.

Our clients include those who have complex and diverse needs, those who have been involved in the criminal justice system and individuals who feel lost or ‘stuck’. We empower every individual to find pathways to enable them to progress with their lives.

We provide practical support in matters such as finance, housing, health and well-being, education, training and employment. And, we guide individuals through personal challenges using a trauma-informed approach towards our mentoring and support.

When a client comes to us, we work to address and resolve multiple barriers that might prevent them from moving forward. By putting the right support system in place, we can overcome these barriers.

Our clients include those who have complex and diverse needs, those who have been involved in the criminal justice system and individuals who feel lost or ‘stuck’. We empower every individual to find pathways to enable them to progress with their lives.

We provide practical support in matters such as finance, housing, health and well-being, education, training and employment. And, we guide individuals through personal challenges using a trauma-informed approach towards our mentoring and support.

Our experience allows us to provide non-discriminatory and non-judgemental support, including to those involved in the criminal justice system or who have complex and diverse needs.

We see the value in everyone and we understand that self-worth is the foundation for a brighter future. We enable everyone to feel heard and to feel that they belong; empowering them to rebuild their lives.

Based in the heart of Cornwall, our team members work across Cornwall and into the South West. We work in partnership with local and national services to provide a whole-person approach to our support and advocacy.

We are a not for profit organisation and as such, we rely on grants, funding and support from allied trusts. If you would like to see how you can support our work, please click the button below to find out more.
