Day opportunities

We aim to provide a wide range of day opportunities which cater for individual interests.

Some activities are located in leisure or work places while others are based in community centres. We also actively encourage and support people to develop their own interests at a local level.

We are very aware that mental health problems can often lead to isolation. In some areas we are developing activities which will be available during the evenings and weekends.

There are three KCC run Mental Health Resource Houses in Kent. They are informal drop in centres for people who are or have suffered from mental health problems. This can range from the more serious, such as bi-polar or manic depression and schizophrenia, to mild depression, anxiety and panic attacks. Every one of these can have a major effect on the sufferers life in one way or another. The centres help and support people in what they want to achieve in their life, whether it be starting off in or going back to work, going to college or attending adult education classes, even help and support in filling out forms for benefits.
