Groups, workshops and emotional support to help you live well in Fareham and Gosport.
Our network of recovery-focussed Wellbeing Centres offer safe spaces to be yourself and get back on track through groups, workshops, activities and emotional support.
Through an initial telephone assessment, we'll work with you to set goals for your time with us and find the right courses to help you work towards them. We can also help signpost you to local services for any additional support needs, like housing, benefits, counselling, crisis support or other specific mental health needs.
Our support is always specific and personalised to you, but might include a combination of creative arts, active groups, mindfulness and useful specific short courses for anxiety, self-esteem or life skills. Whatever challenges you may be facing in your life, we can help you build the confidence to manage and understand your symptoms.
We offer a range of groups to support with your wellbeing, like coffee and chat mornings, the over-50s social and groups to support with anxiety. There's something for everyone.
You can self-refer yourself to the Wellbeing Centre if you are aged 18 or over, have a GP in the Fareham & Gosport area and experience mild to moderate mental health problems like anxiety, stress, low mood or self esteem or depression.
If you are currently supported by a local Community Mental Health Team or Acute Mental Health Team, please speak to your Care Co-ordinator or other lead professional so they may refer you directly to us.
Our support is not counselling. Instead, we give you the tools to take action, learn how to manage your wellbeing and widen your network of support.
Along with the self-referral options above, we also accept:
CMHT and AMHT referrals require a risk assessment in addition to our Agency Referral Form. Our support can be offered to patients as an element within a wider care plan, but is not appropriate as a sole-replacement for secondary care.

Clinton Perry works for Solent Mind in the Fareham and Gosport Primary Care Network (PCN), supporting individuals with their mental health at local GP surgeries in the region. Having worked for the charity for nearly 18 months, the 35-year-old said it was coming through his own personal struggles that gave him the skills to support others in a similar situation.
