MODS - mental health peer support group

MODS = Made of Different Stuff

Mental health peer support group

St James Benwell Church hall, NE15 6RS

Wednesdays

Group starts at 1.30pm (arrive from 1.10pm). Finish by 2.30pm

MODS is an ongoing mental health peer support group — helping us to help ourselves!

You can start and finish whenever you like, and rejoin at any time. This is an open and safe space to share whatever is going on for you - and you won’t be made to share anything you don’t want to.

Together, we’ll learn about our own mental health through visual aids, journaling, and discussion, discovering ways to improve our lives.

“Mental health has been part of my life and my family’s life since I was very young. It is a personal journey. This won’t be about me telling people what to do, but about helping you to improve your mental health. This is something that is very close to my heart.” — Kathy Germain
