Somewhere To Turn is an invaluable early intervention service funded purely by your kind donations and fundraising.

We operate from a needs led approach, with our trained and experienced team working with you during an initial appointment to help identify your needs.

We can cover various mental health or wellbeing topics including trauma, stress and anxiety, loneliness and isolation.

Appropriate support is then offered on a case-by-case basis, depending on you as an individual and tailored to suit you best. Options could include using our 1-2-1 counselling service, support groups or psychoeducational support sessions.

By giving a donation or becoming a regular giver, you can help us keep this service running and allow us to reach more local people in need.

South East and Central Essex Mind serve the Chelmsford, Castle Point, Rochford, South Woodham Ferrers and Southend areas helping support local people with their mental health and wellbeing needs.
