Changes works to a 12 step programme, based on traditional 12 step philosophy, encompassing up-to-date self-help techniques and members own knowledge and experience.

Changes can help with any type of mental health problem  provided you attend, share in our goal of mental health, and get involved, you'll make progress.

Changes
groups are run by 2 specially trained Coordinators, (often people who have been 'in the programme' themselves, and have first hand experience in mental distress), who are there simply to ensure the meeting stays on track.

Changes
meetings are informal and follow a set agenda which ensures structure, a positive approach, and individual progress.
