How safe spaces work

Book a slot

Email a facilitator to book a Microsoft Teams or phone session. In-person spaces welcome you locally — see your area page for details.

Share as much or as little as you like

Talk openly about how you are feeling, or simply sit with a supportive presence. There is no pressure.

Emotional, non-clinical support

Trained volunteers offer a calm, welcoming environment focused on emotional wellbeing — not clinical treatment.

Signposting when needed

If you need extra help, we can guide you towards other SAPUK services and local support.
