Are you looking to join a local club or group? Do you need to contact a self-help group for support with a health condition? Are you trying to find a local charity? EssexConnects is the place to find local activities and to help you to get in touch with hundreds of local charities, voluntary groups, and community sector services, based in Braintree, Chelmsford, Colchester, Tendring, Maldon, Uttlesford, Epping, Harlow, Basildon, Billericay and Wickford.

EssexConnects also powers a range of Social Prescribing initiatives across the county using the Connect Well online tool referring people to a range of local, non-medical support to maximise their social, emotional or practical wellbeing.

It also provides links to Connect Well and Community 360 (Colchester and Tendring), both online tools that can help people find the information they need.
