Royston Wellbeing Groups – Mind in Mid Herts

What to expect

These groups provide a safe and supportive environment in which to meet others and share experiences. The group that meets in the afternoon on Wednesdays has an arts and crafts focus (all materials provided), and the group that meets in the morning on Thursdays is an opportunity for a cup of tea and a chat. It isn’t group therapy, but it’s hoped you’ll feel better for having been. The arts and crafts group will be joined by an art tutor once a month with the opportunity to try new skills like pottery.

All groups start with a check-in so you can share how your week is going, but there is no pressure to participate if you just want to observe or just ‘be’. Groups last an hour or so, but you don’t have to stay for the whole thing.

If you are feeling anxious about attending, contact Carlie or Zoe and they can have a chat with you or meet you for coffee first.

More information

Mind in Mid Herts is always on the look-out for volunteers to support outreach work – if you can spare some time, they’d be delighted to hear from you. Find out more here.
