Bexley Mental Health Hub

Bexley Mental Health Hub provides person-centred support based on individual needs and addresses the wider determinants of mental health, such as social connectedness, physical and economic health.

The Hub carries out an initial holistic assessment during which the member of the team will work with the client to establish the areas of need and how the Hub can support them.

Providing easy access to mental health services, the Hub offers short-term interventions and supports people to connect with local specialist services where required.

Revival Kent

Revival Food & Mood is a social enterprise cafe and wellness hub that serves breakfast, brunch and lunch in a unique setting in the heart of Whitstable.

The Revival social enterprise was set up in Whitstable in 2016. It is an innovative model combining food, community, support and information under one roof as a cafe and wellbeing community hub in accessible central/High Street locations.

The cafe is open, accessible and focused on both informal and focused support, wellbeing initiatives, awareness raising campaigns, community space and workshops and training.
