A space for hope and wellbeing

About the project

The grant would enable us to move to premises that would be exclusively ours and that we would have continuous use of. Currently we have no access during the day. Our plan will be to run a daily session during the week. These would include a Women's support group, two men's, mental health support sessions, a Medication, Recovery and Me session and to reinstate our Loneliness Cafe drop in session. Our plan would be to have guest presenters at the Mens and Womens groups looking at wellbeing and health issues.
