About

free support and listening service

We are a group of qualified volunteers offering activities, active listening and support in the community.

These sessions are held by appointment with one of our volunteers face to face, in a quiet space within Brixham Library- which has disability access.

We may also be able to offer you a telephone or online appointment so do ask us!

In addition we now have our Renters Support Service, we ask you to email for advice by contacting [email protected]

sometimes it may be necesssary to meet in person to assist you further. We deal with things like understanding your rights as a renter, how to format letters to your landlord or letting agent, what to do if repairs aren't carried out. We don't offer a home finding service, but sometimes will advertise for you via our social media.

We have a monthly gamers social for those over 18 - A place where you can connect safely with like minded people, play games, talk about gaming books films and so on. Details and dates available by e-mailing us.

This is held in a quiet secure location, with lift access so if you have challenges to your mobility, or easily overwhelmed by noise or large groups this is the place for you. Carers or supporters are made welcome to the sessions too.

we do ask for a small donation of no more than £5 which helps to cover costs.

Our mindfulness groups run every other Monday and you do need to book your first session. Numbers are kept small so that its not too overwhelming. Mindfulness helps with anxiety and stress.

the cost of this session is donation £6.50 or less.

Our collaboration with Middle Street Walkers takes place on a montly basis and is free
