Jude’s Corner comes to Beccles!!

Judes Corner is a social group that was built after Asa Rush was struggling with his own mental health struggles which was supported by his friend, who inevitably saved his life. His friend's actions motivated Mr Rush to start a group for people who may have felt the same way.

Six years later Mr Rush has now brought his mental health support group, Jude's Corner, to Blyburgate Hall in Beccles.
For anyone wishing to attend, we are open Monday evenings at Blyburgate Hall in Beccles from 6-8pm and also at Reydon Sports and Community Centre in Reydon from 6-8pm every Friday evening. You can go alone, play board games, pool, socialise, have a hot drink and a snack.

Today is often called Blue Monday, a day many people feel a little heavier than usual.
If that’s you today, please know you’re not weak and you’re not alone. 💙

Some days are harder than others, and it’s okay to acknowledge that. Take a breath, be kind to yourself, and remember that support is available, whether that’s a friend, a loved one, or a professional.

You don’t have to carry everything by yourself.

Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness - it’s a sign of strength.

Reaching out takes courage, honesty, and self-awareness. It means recognising when something feels too heavy to carry alone and choosing to seek support instead.

Whether it’s talking to a friend, a family member, or a support service, you deserve understanding, care, and compassion. You don’t have to have all the answers, and you don’t have to face things by yourself.

💙 Asking for help is a strength, not a failure. Support is always here.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) affects many people, especially during the darker, colder months. Shorter days, reduced sunlight and changes in routine can all have an impact on our mood, energy levels and overall wellbeing.

If you’re finding winter particularly hard, please know you’re not alone — and you’re not failing. Small, gentle steps can make a difference. Seeking natural light where possible, keeping a steady daily routine, and staying connected with others can help support your mental health during this season.

Most importantly, reaching out for support matters. Whether it’s talking to someone you trust, accessing professional help, or connecting with support services, you deserve care and understanding.

Light, routine and connection can help — and support is here, whatever this season brings.💙

You don’t need New Year’s resolutions, big goals, or self-improvement plans to deserve care.

Care isn’t something you earn — it’s something you’re worthy of simply by being human.

As the year begins, let’s remind ourselves that growth can be slow, rest is valid, and support is always allowed.

💙 Be kind to yourself. 💚 Support is always here.

The festive season can bring moments of joy, but it can also leave people feeling overwhelmed, lonely, or unsure where to turn once the celebrations end.

At NIHCSS, our support doesn’t pause with the holidays. We’re here all year round, offering compassionate, person-centred support for individuals, families and communities — whenever it’s needed most.

If you’re finding things difficult right now, please know you don’t have to face it alone. Support is available, and reaching out is a sign of strength.

💙 We’re here. Today, tomorrow, and beyond the festive season. 💚

Winter can be a difficult time. Shorter days, colder weather, and fewer social moments can make feelings of loneliness feel heavier and harder to shake.

If you’re struggling right now, please know this: you’re not weak — you’re human. 💚
Loneliness doesn’t mean you’ve failed or that something is wrong with you. It simply means you need connection, care, and compassion — just like everyone else.

You don’t have to face this season alone. Reaching out, talking to someone, or taking small steps to care for yourself can make a difference. And if today feels especially hard, that’s okay too. One day at a time is enough.

You are seen. You matter. And support is always worth asking for. 💙

A new year doesn’t mean you have to reinvent yourself. 💚
There’s no pressure to rush, reset, or suddenly become someone new. Growth doesn’t have to be loud or dramatic — it can be quiet, steady, and gentle.

This year, it’s okay to move at your own pace. To rest when you need to. To take small steps instead of giant leaps. To honour how far you’ve already come, even if the journey hasn’t been easy.

Progress looks different for everyone, and sometimes simply showing up for yourself is more than enough.
Let this be a year of compassion, patience, and kindness — especially towards yourself.

You’re allowed to grow slowly. You’re allowed to stay soft. And you’re allowed to take things one day at a time. 💙
