Pepper's- A Safe Place is a mental health organisation based in Oakham. We provide 1-2-1 and peer support to adults across Rutland and Melton Mowbray.

Join us during Mental Health Awareness Week (10th-16th May 2021), get involved and help us raise vital funds and awareness of this important local source of support for people with mental health difficulties.

Sign up to our virtual, sponsored Miles for Mental Health and help us raise funds by walking, running, cycling, hopping, skipping or jumping!

Get creative and enter our Photography Competition with some amazing prizes on offer.

If you're feeling lucky, enter our raffle for a chance to win some incredible local prizes, such as a bottle of local Gin, a goodie bag from Hambleton Bakery, vouchers for Rutland Cakeaway, gifts from Rutland Wax Melts and so much more. Get your tickets at Oakham Market on Wednesday 12th or Saturday 15th May, (why not treat yourself to some of our delicious cakes on sale as well!)

All the details for our Mental Health Awareness Week activities can be found on our website or social media pages (peppersoakham).

We need you, our community, to help us end the stigma around mental health, spread awareness for the services we provide and raise vital funds so that we can continue supporting those in need.

Our premises provide a safe and welcoming place for anyone to come and chat, share their experiences over a cup of tea, escape potential loneliness and relax, away from daily stresses. We offer regular drop-in sessions for adults twice weekly on Tuesday mornings and Thursday afternoons, as well as providing support to parents and babies on Thursday mornings.

In addition, we have a Friendship support line. Just call our Reception on 07714 503 556 and they will put you in touch with one of our wonderful volunteers for a chat.

If you, or anyone you know, is struggling with their mental health, please speak up and reach out. We are here for you.
