Let’s talk about mental health
We are so excited to be taking part in this year’s campaign to raise £5,000 in just 1 week! Between the 28th November to 5th December, any donations made to us will be doubled. These funds will go towards the running costs of our invaluable online and in person support groups. Donations will be generously matched by our incredible sponsors during the campaign meaning your money can go twice as far.
Our Support
We understand that no-one should have to face feelings of stress, anxiety or depression alone.
That’s why Changes Bristol provide peer support groups in Bristol and online for anyone aged 18 or over, offering a safe and friendly space for people to share any worries they might have. Our groups are free to access, confidential, with no referral needed and no diagnosis required. We also now offer one-to-one phone befriending for new and existing members.
As well as this support, we offer a large number of volunteering opportunities and workplace training in mental health awareness.

We are committed to fostering inclusivity, belonging and equality and we are allies in the fight against systemic racism, homophobia, and hate.

However badly my week is going, I know I have people who are ready to listen every Tuesday which helps me from feeling isolated”
