ABOUT US

What’s going on so far with the group?

 

The Hearing Voices Group, in Waltham Forest, was set up 15 years ago by Victoria and Hannah, both voice hearers, who met in Claybury hospital, in 1989.

Victoria moved to Norfolk, about 4 years ago, and Pete, one of our Hearing Voices Group members, stepped in as Co-facilitator with Hannah.

In December, 2015, Pete stepped down as Co-facilitator, and Kris came on board.

Kris is not a voice hearer, however she brings a wealth of experience, having worked in Mental health for 25 years.

 

At the present, we now have 15 members of the Hearing Voices Group.

We have seen approximately 100 members come through our doors since we opened.

This includes Carers, both professional and family members.

We are offering a “taster session”, then placing potential new members onto a waiting list.

 

As you can see, from this fantastic new website, designed and set up by Pete, we have a lot to offer!

We also go on Group outings, such as annual seaside trips, local walks, bowling , boat trip, Christmas meal, etc.

 

The group often go on outings to the seaside such as Broadstairs, Southend and Brighton.  Outings include bowling, meeting up for a pub lunch and much more.  We have now moved to a new location which is at The Salvation Army venue in Walthamstow near Lloyd Park.
