Our group aims to be a safe place for carers to offload their problems and support each other, knowing they will not be judged. We have all had personal experience of caring for someone close to us, and so we understand what it can be like supporting someone through a challenging treatment path. We have occasional speakers, and try to be involved in local decision making to help improve the situations of carers and their loved ones.

Our very long running Wimbledon Wednesday Group has become a key source of information and support in the area. We provide information on local and national services and support and empower one another. The group is for anyone affected by mental illness who is or has been under a Community Mental Health Team. We also talk to local decision makers to try and improve the treatment of all those affected by mental illness. We meet every Wednesday of the year for a relaxed and friendly evening of games, low-cost food and drinks, bingo, chess, art and colouring, Scrabble, chatting and quizzes. We also have a quiet room for those who wish to use it. We have occasional outings, eg to the theatre, cinema, walks, days out to towns and cities, countryside and seaside. We are always looking to do more, so we would welcome any suggestions and support.

We are an online support group for women experiencing depression, anxiety, or other mental health issues, yet you don't need a formal diagnosis to join or benefit from the group. We welcome adults of all ages, including those residing in Hampshire and the neighbouring counties. We can offer a safe, trusting and non-judgemental space to talk, receive and give support, feel less alone with your struggles and make new connections. Sometimes, we focus on a specific life area, such as self-care, coping skills or relationships, yet mostly it's about being yourself and with others. We understand that it can feel scary meeting online, and joining a group for the first time, yet we are here for you. If you're interested in joining us and would like to find out whether the group may be for you, please contact our Group Coordinator, Vicky Mould.
