Inside RTMinds

RTMinds is a community.

A safe supportive community A place where people can find joy and meaning. The people we welcome are often experiencing anxiety, depression, or suicidal thoughts.  They may be self harming or struggling with food,….. Whatever their struggles we believe they deserve better. We believe that happiness and contentment is a human right. That people should wake with hope for the day ahead instead of dread. We help people to overcome their fears and worries and to learn to live again, to breathe in their air which belongs to them without guilt or trepidation. 

Our 'Open Art Surgery' is a fully equipped art studio where people get involved in a whole range of creative activities including art, music, poetry, photography, printmaking, film making as well as outside activities and experiences in nature including mindfulness, yoga, nature walks.

Alongside creative activities attendees can access one to one emotional and psychological support.

We are successful because we:

Tap into people strengths rather than focussing on perceived weaknesses.

Help people to realise what they can do instead of focussing on what they can’t do.

Focusing on solutions rather than problems

Realising individuals amazing potential

Treat people with deserved respect

We do our best to say 'Yes'
