What’s there?
- Drop-in mental health support (any time we’re open!)
- Scheduled mental health support (if you’d prefer to make an appointment)
- Wellbeing groups
- Creative groups and activities
- Volunteering opportunities
What do I need to do?
We’re open 3.30pm – 7.30pm Monday – Thursday for drop in support. For most things, you can just turn up and ask anything you want to know.
For mental health support, anyone that feels like they need some support can come and talk to us, and together we’ll work out what to do next. You can pre-book a 121 appointment or just turn up on the day and ask for one.
For wellbeing groups, creative groups, or volunteering, we run different things on different days and they are split by age group to best support our young people. Mondays and Wednesdays are for 11-13 year olds, while Tuesdays and Thursdays are for 14-17 year olds. Get in touch to find out what’s happening when, or see our Swansea NPT Hangout Timetable for more information.
Prefer to plan ahead?
If you’d find it easier to make an appointment for anything we do, that’s fine too. Get in touch with us on swanseahangout@platfform.org and we’ll be in touch!
If you’re getting some mental health support from a different service, the person you’re working with there can also contact us; just send them this page.
