New activities offered by Melton mental health charity
Pepper’s – A Safe Place offer their sessions at their centre, at 53 King Street in the town, and people of all ages have benefited from their help.
The charity runs a quiet drop-in event every Monday from 11am to 1pm, giving members the opportunity to break the cycle of isolation, chat with a listening volunteer over a cup of tea or simply relax and unwind.

Locals are invited to enjoy some of their new services, which will include art and crafts, a useful mindful activity for those in need of a little ‘me-time’, guided meditation and mindfulness workshops, gardening and Tai Chi, and music sessions.
Anna Watson, the centre manager, said: “We’re excited to be offering locals such a range of activities, there’s something for everyone.
"If you’re feeling low, anxious, isolated or just wish to look after your mind, please do pop into our centre opposite The Regal cinema.
"We understand how daunting it can be coming to a new place, so if you have any concerns or questions please do send us a message.”
