Exploring spaces in the city centre, we hang out and meet others over a coffee or tea. Feel free to come for some or all of the time. We may have activities to do, like games or quizzes or you can bring your own thing to do too. If you are new to The Wolfpack or prefer being in a smaller group, then this is the ideal group for you.

Testimonials

I completed the training as a refresher. It was great to sharpen my skills and learn from the experience of other people in the room.

⎯ Rae, Youth Worker

I didn’t realise loneliness would have such an impact on wellbeing, but now I have a greater understanding of how to recognise it and better look after myself and the students I work with.

⎯ Ashley, Support Worker

My key takeaway was how much language has changed around different mental health issues, so I am more confident in using the right terms now.

⎯ Joe, Service Manager

I learned so much with the real-life examples and information provided. It’s helped so much in my role to understand more and have a greater empathy towards staff and clients.

⎯ Nicki, Service Manager
