Safe Haven Bolton

Safe Haven Bolton Providing person-centred, recovery-focused support for mental health & wellbeing

Seeing a growing need for specialist support around mental health and wellbeing in the Bolton area, we formed our organisation to provide person-centred support, with a focus on recovery to individuals affected by mental ill-health and their families. Built from the ground up, with a management team consisting of a psychologist and social worker, both of whom have extensive knowledge and experience working in mental health. We decided that we wanted to provide a service which not only offers holistic support like no other, but also gives back to our community to improve the lives of others.

Another wonderful Mental Health Group on Tuesday! 💚

It was great to see everyone getting creative and supporting each other while making positive affirmation keyrings. There were lots of smiles, great conversations, and plenty of encouragement as everyone designed their own little reminders of strength and positivity to take away with them.

Moments like these show how powerful it can be when people come together in a safe, welcoming space to connect, create, and look after their wellbeing.

Our Mental Health Group runs every Tuesday from 11:30am – 1:30pm, at Bolton central library, and everyone is welcome. We’d love to see some new faces join us! 🌟

Today’s mental health group was such a beautiful success 💛

From celebrating International Pets Day and sharing stories about the animals who bring us comfort, to opening up about what it truly means to feel the love — the room was filled with warmth, connection, and support. 🐾

Pets remind us that love can be simple, loyal, and healing. And that’s exactly what our group is all about — creating a safe space where everyone feels heard, valued, and supported.

If you’re looking for connection, conversation, and a welcoming community, we’re here for you.

Join us Tomorrow and every Tuesday from 11:30am – 1:30pm at Bolton Central Library for a friendly, supportive space where you can connect, chat and focus on your wellbeing.

🐾 This week we’re celebrating International Pets Day! 🐾
Did you know pets can have a hugely positive impact on our mental health?

✨ They provide companionship and help reduce feelings of loneliness
✨ They can lower stress and anxiety
✨ Caring for a pet gives structure and purpose
✨ They boost our mood and bring comfort

We’d love you to bring along a photo of your pet to share with the group! 🐶🐱🐹

Everyone is welcome – whether you just fancy a chat, want to meet new people, or are looking for support in a safe and understanding environment.

We hope to see you there 💗

Happy Valentines Day 💖

While today is a great time to show love to other people, why not show love to yourself too? 🥹

Here are some of our favourite ideas on how to self-love this Valentines weekend 🫶

And finally, amazing progress was made by Rowena this week. When our Neurodiversity lead Laura visited with Mable 🐶

Until yesterday , Rowena held a long-standing fear of dogs. Even the sound of paws or a jangling collar would make her tense.

Yesterday Laura and Rowena walked together around Moses gate park 🌳

The open paths, other walkers, and off-lead dogs in the distance would once have felt overwhelming. But today was different.

Rowena wasn’t gripping the lead in panic, she was breathing steadily, talking, & even smiling.

Yesterday, Rowena walked Mabel and made a new companion. She even did goodbye strokes at the end.

We're so so proud of her 🥹🐾

Such a nice day was had when Eve & Emma visited Smithills farm last Saturday!

Emma loves the goats 🐐 so much so, she wanted to bring a baby goat home! 😅 thankfully we were able to compromise and bring home a baby goat teddy 🥹

Our Maggie's been a busy bee 🐝 this past week or so!

She's been for walkies with Courtney's beautiful dapple Dachshund Iris 🤎

She's visited Birkacre with Corrina, made spaghetti bolognaise 🍝 two cheesecakes 🍰 & met our lovely new support worker Ashley 🥰

I wonder what adventures next week will bring 💕

💬 Time to Talk Day 💙

Today is Time to Talk Day, a reminder of how powerful a simple conversation can be. Talking about mental health helps break down stigma, builds understanding, and lets people know they’re not alone.

You don’t need to have the perfect words just being there, listening, and checking in can make a real difference. For some, opening up is the first step towards getting the support they need.

Let’s keep the conversation going. 💗
Because talking saves lives.
