Welcome

At Not A Statistic North East(NAS-NE), we understand how difficult it is for people going through life's ups and downs to find a space where they can build connections with others who understand what they’re experiencing. 

 

Not A Statistic-NE was created to help individuals find a safe space to access peer to peer support with a free tea or coffee, biscuits and some laughs along the way. See the Sessions page for more details.

THE PLAN

At present we are starting with a fortnightly group session in Sunderland. We hope to build a good foundation group to Increase sessions to weekly. With plans of starting group sessions in Washington, Houghton and Durham.

 

The aim of each session is to provide a safe space for conversation and to allow people to a discuss their week. Along with  facilitator led signposting to local/national resources which may be helpful to attendees.

Founder / Facilitator

"I have struggled with my own mental health for the whole of my adult life and genuinely believe peer to peer support saved my life. when I was going through my darkest times, I was lucky to find groups during the day, however i found once i returned to work, Evening groups were not as easy to come by. This is why i started Not a Statistic - Northeast"
