Mental Health Drop-in at York Mind
Join us for a visit to find out more about the YorChoice drop-in at York Mind from 4 – 7 pm.
It’s a drop-in so that means you can arrive when you can and stay as long as you like! This drop in is not a crisis service or a youth club but a place where a young person can go and then leave feeling like they have been listened to and helped to find the right support for them in York.
The aim of the drop is to support you to find what services are available and most appropriate to you in York or give you some tips whilst you might be on a waiting list.
20/01/2025 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm | York Carers Centre

The group is aimed at and accessible to male Young Adult Carers and Young Adult Carers who identify as male. The session is also open and welcome to all Young Adult Carers however they identify.
