PeerTalk is a national mental health charity providing volunteer-led peer support groups for adults experiencing anxiety, depression and related distress.
PeerTalk helps by providing a safe and welcoming space to talk about problems and to share common experiences. The PeerTalk sessions are weekly and open to all. There is no requirement for a GP or other referral and no pressure on anyone to attend. The relaxed and unthreatening nature of the groups encourage continued attendance. Regular weekly sessions meet the need for social interaction and ongoing support within the community. PeerTalk groups focus not just on sharing experiences, but on positive suggestions for improving mood and dealing with anxiety. That these suggestions come from others in the same position, gives them additional power and validity. There is clear evidence of significant improvement in the mood of many participants, with group members providing strong verbal feedback on how the support of the group has helped them.
