We do hope you’re keeping well in the summer sun.
We are writing with news about some new community groups we are offering at UMEUS and wanted you to be some of the first to know.
In listening to what clients tell us in therapeutic sessions, about the type of support they find helpful, it’s clear that many people would like more contact with others in the community who are experiencing similar situations.
Many feel supported in a group just by knowing that they are not alone with the types of issues that crop up, day to day. A chance to connect and a chance to share can really change the weight of what we might be carrying.
UMEUS has been hosting support groups since 2015. These continued through the pandemic, both online and in outdoor spaces, until we opened our new clinic in Hove in the summer of 2021.
We also received our first round of funding from Brighton & Hove Council the same year, and we’re proud to let you know we’ve been awarded another round this year to deliver more of the groups that have provided connection and community for those who attend.
We realise it’s really short notice, but we are piloting 3 groups in July and want to invite you to take part and be a part of developing the sessions that will continue later on in the year and into 2024.
Please reply to express your interest and reserve your place on one or more of the sessions.
There will be no more than 10 attendees, and we will run the group as soon as we have 6 confirmed bookings.
There is no fee to attend, but we do ask that should you commit to being present, that if anything changes regarding your availability, you please advise us at least 24 hours before the session begins so we have time to offer the space to someone else.
If you wish to bring a friend, or know of someone who you feel might benefit by attending a pilot, or be interested in any of our other therapeutic support, please do share the attached flyer.
One last thing…we’d really like to make sure you receive up to date information, especially as we will be announcing some big updates to the organisation over the coming weeks. Please do click to join our members list, we promise we won’t bombard you!
