How your funding is changing lives through our projects
The Anxious Minds Hope Centre is Now Open!
We’re proud to announce the official opening of the Anxious Minds Hope Centre — a safe, welcoming space dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by mental health challenges. Located in the heart of the community, the Hope Centre offers access to a range of free services including counselling, wellbeing workshops, peer support groups, and crisis intervention.
The centre is built on the belief that no one should face mental illness alone.
Veteran and Community Kitchen
In a world where veterans often face numerous challenges upon returning to civilian life, the Veteran and Community Kitchen emerges as a beacon of hope and support for two communities.
The Veteran and Community Kitchen is part of the North East Veteran Recovery College, dedicated to providing nourishing meals and a supportive environment for veterans in need and the community we serve delivering over 18,000 hot meals a year. It serves as a vital resource for veterans and people in the local community of North Tyneside who may be experiencing homelessness, food insecurity, or struggling to adjust to civilian life.
Veteran Recovery College
At The Veteran Recovery College, we understand the unique challenges that Veterans and their families face when it comes to mental health.
Our team of professionals, many of whom are Veterans themselves, offer a range of services, including counselling, women-only support, workshops, groups and help with alcohol and drug abuse. These programs not only provide practical support but also create a sense of belonging and camaraderie that is essential for Veterans and their families as they transition from military to civilian life. Winner of 8 National Awards and supporting over 200 veterans a year.

These services focus on providing accessible and holistic care to individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and levels of need. Supporting over 250 people a week.
The Empowerment Project
Domestic abuse is a serious and pervasive issue affecting Women and families across the North East region. It is characterised by patterns of power and control by one person over another, often through physical, emotional, and psychological means.
Community Recovery Centre Review
I suffer from anxiety and depression and a couple of years ago I wasn’t very well and I would have had to wait a very long time for the talking therapies from the National Health which is not their fault because it’s down to funding.
So I went online and I found Anxious Minds and I got on the phone and I think it was Eddie I spoke to and I got to see a counsellor within a week. Then I found out about the Recovery Drop In Centre and I have been coming here and it’s a really good place.
