“I love coming to the Littlehampton support hub. After every session, I come out with a smile and I feel really positive. I have learned a lot, I am listened to and I can talk openly about how I feel”

What we offer

West Sussex Mind offers a range of support to help you with your mental health. This includes help for parents and carers with young children, for 16-25 year olds, and for adults and children in GP surgeries. See below links to leaflets about our services, translated into Polish.

We also run a drop-in for Polish people every two weeks on Tuesdays from 10am to 12 noon, starting on 10 September 2024. This is held at Littlehampton United Church Hall, 1 High Street, Littlehampton BN17 5EG in partnership with Stonepillow and Turning Tides.

This drop-in group aims to help people with:

  • poor mental wellbeing
  • insecure housing
  • financial problems and benefits
  • employment
  • settlement status and more.
