Throughout November 2023, the Oakham-based mental health charity, Pepper's- A Safe Place, will be hosting a range of activities open to all.

Pepper's- A Safe Place runs friendly and welcoming drop-in sessions and wellbeing activities for any adults who may be struggling with their Mental Health.

All adults are welcome to come and take a break, socialise, combat isolation, have fun and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee.

Development Manager, Pippa Gorman, said: "Loneliness is something that I'm sure we have all struggled with, especially throughout the pandemic. But many live with it everyday. We want to bring the community together, with a shared, safe and welcoming space for all, to chat, socialise, have fun and be less alone." 

Pepper's - A Safe Place have been open for nearly 4 years, offering drop-in sessions for any adults struggling with their mental health or loneliness. 

Pippa said: "Our sessions are open to all adults, you can take some time out in a relaxed environment, chat with others, have fun or just relax with a cup of tea.

"We encourage anyone in the community to come and have a chat with us during our market stalls or to pop into one of our sessions during the week. Even if it's not for you, it may be that a friend or family member would benefit from that social, relaxed and safe space that Pepper's can provide." 

Pepper's- A Safe Place has hubs based in Oakham and Melton that are open to the public to support mental wellbeing. Image credit: Pepper's- A Safe Place.
