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.

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 open to people with severe mental illness who are or have been supported by a community mental health team.

We are a peer support group for women experiencing mental health issues, and we welcome adults of all ages, including those residing in Hampshire and the neighbouring counties. You don't need a formal or specific diagnosis to attend, and our group may benefit you if you'd like a safe place to talk, feel less alone with your struggles, make social connections, learn from others, develop your confidence and self-esteem. Sometimes, we focus on a specific life area, such as self-care or relationships, and occasionally we have speakers in the group, yet it's more about being yourself in the group and sharing how things are for you. We offer an environment where you can feel genuinely heard, understood, valued and accepted, and you can attend the group for as long as you wish. We understand that it can feel scary coming into the group for the first time, yet we're here for you, and say it's worth giving it a try. If you'd like to attend the group, please contact our Group Coordinator, Vicky Mould.
