ABOUT DEREHAM WORRY TREE CAFÉ

ABOUT

Dereham Worry Tree Café Norfolk
​MISSION AND HISTORY

Our aim is to offer free support and signposting to those with Mental Health challenges, isolation and loneliness. We are open to any age and everyone. Come and have a cuppa and a chat.

​

The Worry Tree Café concept is a very simple; for two hours at the same location every week, our small team of volunteers organise tea, coffee, and biscuits. Anyone affected – directly or indirectly – by mental health issues can drop in for a cuppa and chat. You don't even have to discuss your problems, but we are here for you if you do.

The environment is warm, friendly and non-judgemental, with different people to chat to, who over time could become friends.  The most common reason for attending is loneliness, but the Café also supports people dealing with grief, depression, and a variety of other issues.

 

Guests can access free advice, but there is no obligation to talk about mental health at all; for some people, the chance to get out of the house and be sociable is the most important support the Café offers.
