crisis cafe
If you are going through a difficult patch or
had a particularly bad day - perhaps you are
thinking you may have to go into hospital
or need help to prevent a crisis, or you may
just be feeling lonely or low - and having
someone to talk to, meeting other people,
speaking to a counsellor or simply being in
a friendly and safe space for a while would
prevent things getting worse; then our
evening Crisis Café is available to help. It is
open every day of the week, including
weekends, from 6pm until 11pm at our
building in Faulkner Road.
Service open 6pm to 11pm,
seven days a week.
Located at 14-16 Faulkner Road, B92 8SY
No appointment necessary, in-person
service.
The service is very informal and you can use it as
and when you feel you need it; you don’t need to
be referred by anyone, just turn up when we are
open. Our building is two semi-detached houses
knocked through inside and has several different
rooms/areas - including a conservatory, garden
and TV room - as well as the two main lounge
areas and separate rooms for one to one
support.
You can chat and socialise with other people,
have some time with a support worker, have a
one to one private session with a qualified
counsellor, or just find yourself a quiet space
where you can be around people if you don’t
want to be alone, without actually needing to
talk to anyone if you don’t want to.
There are two workers available, including at
least one counsellor, to provide support as well
as guidance on how you can get further help
including accessing services such as advocacy to
help with accessing services, housing problems,
benefits claims, debt and financial advice,
counselling, employment support and advice
plus other social and leisure activities.
We can also assist in getting further help from
your GP, NHS mental health services, and Social
Services; and if you decide that you need
emergency help, we can arrange this too.
Solihull Mind is now Oasis Mental Health Support - same services,
same people, same support - new website coming soon!
