✨ A little moment of Christmas magic at Oakham… ✨

Everyone was having such a lovely time at our Christmas gathering yesterday that we barely took any photos at all! And honestly… that says everything. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who came along, filled the room with laughter, and brought such generous donations of food, snacks, festive cheer....and not forgetting the wonderful jazzy Christmas jumpers ✨

Your kindness, warmth and Christmas spirit made the afternoon feel truly special.

From all of us at Pepper’s — thank you for making our community what it is.

🎶 Singing Circle Joy at Pepper’s, Oakham! 🎶

We had the loveliest afternoon singing with the wonderful Claudia yesterday — and if you keep watching, you’ll see the whole group joining in together.

So many smiles, so much laughter, and the kind of uplifting, heart-warming harmonies that stay with you long after the session ends.

There’s something really special about a room full of voices coming together — gentle, brave, joyful — and yesterday was exactly that. 💛

✨ Future Singing Circle dates will be announced soon, so keep an eye on our page if you’d like to join us next time.
No experience needed — just bring yourself.

An Introduction to Pepper’s - A Safe Place

Pepper’s A Safe Place is Support group based in Oakham. It was set up to offer volunteering opportunities to people in Rutland with severe and enduring mental health conditions. It is currently a place where people can meet in a safe, informal and welcoming environment whilst enjoying a cup of coffee or a bowl of soup. As our volunteers grow in confidence they will be invited to expand and run the centre. Having a go at being part of the centre will enable people to build work skills and self-esteem, to develop a role, structure and routine and, above all, to feel a sense of belonging and achievement. The aim is that Pepper’s is used as a stepping stone for a more formal work arrangement and a move towards greater independence. Our website has more information https://www.peppersrutland.co.uk/
