If you live with anxiety, we know visiting a new place can feel daunting. So here’s a little walkthrough of the Hub, so you can see what to expect before you come in. You’re always welcome here and we can support you at you're own pace.

The sun shining in thetford and its the best excuse to go out and about! If you’re enjoying the sunshine, come say hello at REST. Our doors are open, the kettle’s on, and you’re always welcome.

We had a brilliant visit yesterday from Ju Jitsu - Thetford - Norfolk Martial Arts, who came along to share what they offer across Thetford and the surrounding areas.

They run classes for:
Infants (4–7 years)
Juniors (8–12 years)
Teenagers (13–15 years)
Adults (16+)

All sessions take place at Thetford Leisure Centre, and they offer a free trial with no hidden costs and no membership fees. It’s a welcoming, inclusive space for anyone wanting to try something new.

Physical activity is one of the most effective ways to support overall mental health. Martial arts in particular can help with:

Reducing stress and anxiety through movement and controlled breathing
Boosting mood by releasing endorphins
Building confidence and resilience through learning new skills
Improving focus and emotional regulation
Creating social connection, which is vital for wellbeing

For many people, having a structured, supportive activity each week can make a real difference to how grounded and motivated they feel.

We’re really grateful to Norfolk Martial Arts for taking the time to visit us and share their work with our community. If you’re curious, they offer a free trial, just scan their QR code or visit their website to get started.

📢 Update to our REST Thetford services
We want to let our community know that we will be vacating Breckland House on 28 February. From this date, our core REST services in Thetford will be delivered from our Riverside Walk location which can be found at 16 Riverside Walk, Thetford, IP24 2BG.

REST Thetford, Riverside Walk is open 7 days a week from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm

💬 What this means for groups in Thetford
Some groups that have been running from Breckland House will continue in alternative community venues. We’re currently exploring options with local centres and spaces that can offer the accessibility and capacity our service users need. We’ll share updates as soon as plans are confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding as we continue to focus on delivering high quality, accessible mental health support across Thetford.
