Hey everyone,
We want to let you know that over the next couple of months, we may need to close more of our evening support group sessions than usual. Some of our amazing volunteers who help us in running these sessions are students at uni and currently preparing for their exams and will need to take a bit of time off
We know how important our support group sessions are and we'll always do our best to run as many sessions as possible. Thank you for your continued support, and we are very much looking forward to resuming our normal schedule soon.
In the meantime, if you are looking for support and one of our sessions is cancelled, these services are always available to you:
The Mix's services

Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤
