This week's Circuit Letter is written by Revd. Adam Payne. It is attached along with the Vine Ordinary and the Vine at Home service sheet.
As January begins, NHS Surrey Heartlands is reminding people that mental health support is available for anyone struggling during the winter months. Returning to everyday routines after the festive period, alongside shorter days, cold weather and new year pressures, can leave people feeling low, anxious or overwhelmed. For some, loneliness, loss or stress may become more noticeable, and existing mental health challenges can feel harder to manage.
The message from NHS Surrey and partners is clear: no one is alone and support is available. Reaching out for help can feel daunting, but it is a positive first step – whether someone is struggling themselves, supporting another person, or looking for local support.
Please read the circuit letter below for specific links to access support.
A Warm Welcome space is a physical space run by a community group, charity, organisation, or business, where people can come to warm up, get a hot drink for free, get energy advice and debt support and enjoy some social interaction.
Some settings also benefit from additional services such as free meals and activities.
