What we do

Community Meeting Point operates from a versatile town centre location with an adjoining retail unit.

From this location we are able to offer information, support, short courses and opportunities for real work experience to support people whose lives have been affected by mental illness. People are supported to regain skills, confidence, interests and hope for the future.

Our range of services are designed to support people in their recovery and to help them to stay well. We focus on supporting our members to become more involved in community life and provide a range of practical activities and courses to help people get ready for employment or further training. We support members to have the same opportunities and choices as everyone else in the community and to make use of the same local facilities.

We also operate a charity shop which adjacent to our activity hub. The shop provides real work experience for our members who have the opportunity to be involved in any or all aspects of running a retail operation. It also provides additional funding for CMP to deliver the services.
