We have been established since 2020
• We aim to end the stigma of mental health, by offering inclusive, non-judgement wellness classes and support groups in a non-clinical setting
• Our main goal is to bridge the gap of the long waiting lists for mental health support by offering complimentary therapies, wellness classes, support groups and activities, such as Sauna and Cold water therapy.
• Our mission: To provide safe community spaces that support wellbeing of people that need it the most.
Why does it count now more than ever to offer these free services?
