Mind in Croydon - The Hub

What is the hub?
The Hub at Fairfield offers support to people with mental health problems and is an extension to Mind in Croydon’s Social Networking Service.
The Hub at Fairfield is a direct response to the day care questionnaire carried out by Mind in Croydon in 2013.

How can the hub help?
The Hub supports people to understand and manage their mental and physical health issues.
The Hub provides a safe place for people who are lonely and isolated to meet and socialise with people and a place for them to receive practical help and advice.
The Hub is also open on a Saturday from 10am til 5pm with a reasonably-priced hot meal at lunchtime.

How do we do this?
Assisting with:
• Form filling
• Benefit issues
• Managing bills and debt
• Outreach support
• Community issues (issues with neighbours)

We review each person accessing the service at regular intervals - three, six and twelve months.
