Mental Health and Recovery
Drop-ins
Our drop-ins provide a welcoming and inclusive space for any adult affected by mental health challenges. They offer an opportunity to connect with others, discover local support services, and occasionally learn new skills. Whether you are experiencing difficulties yourself, caring for someone who is, or simply seeking some support, you are welcome to join the drop-in nearest to you. These sessions are non-clinical, so no referral or diagnosis is needed to attend. Free of charge and often run in partnership with local organisations, our drop-ins are designed and shaped by you!

Although we welcome any adults to our drop-ins, even if you aren’t having your best day, they aren’t set up to be a crisis space.
If you feel like you are in crisis, please contact First Response Service (FRS) by calling 111 or reach out to The Moorings.
Additionally, The Helplines Partnership is a website that provides details for over 300 different helplines you can contact, depending on your circumstances (for example: elderly persons support, LGBTQ, regional, domestic violence, parental support, crime, financial, refugee, housing).
