We’re saddened to share that our building has been deliberately targeted with eggs twice this week. This behaviour is not only distressing for our team but also impacts the safe and welcoming environment we strive to provide for our patients.

If you witnessed anything suspicious near our premises or have any information that could help identify those responsible, please contact the police on 101, quoting crime reference number INC-20251015-1056 / 43250526673.

Your support means a lot to us. Let’s work together to keep our community safe and respectful 💙

Did you know that menopause has been linked to an increased risk developing of depression or experiencing anxiety? 🧠

While menopause isn’t a mental health condition, it can take a huge toll on your mental health. Hormone changes can lead to symptoms of low mood, anxiety, stress and irritability.

Someone going through menopause with a pre-existing mental health condition can also find their symptoms worsened by the physical changes that come with menopause.

As an NHS mental health service, we’re here to help.

You can submit a self-referral online and speak to one of our trained NHS clinicians during a 30 minute assessment.

We have a range of different treatment options within our service including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) on a 1:1, online or group basis.

Everyone has feelings of anxiety at some point in their life. For example, you may feel worried and anxious about sitting an exam, or having a medical test or job interview.

Anxiety is one of the most common and widely experienced mental health difficulties - but with some simple tips and tricks, it can be managed.

Next time you feel anxious, you could try:

- A deep breathing exercise
- Getting out for a brisk walk or another form of physical exercise. Stay active!
- Taking a time out from a stressful situation
