Time@Gateshead (The Children's Society)

TIME@Gateshead is a service under The Children’s Society which delivers brief emotional wellbeing and mental health interventions to all children and young people aged up to 18 (or 25 for children and young people with SEND, and care leavers) across Gateshead. 

We deliver one-to-one support across Gateshead at our dedicated Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health open access, drop-in hubs on the following days and times:
Monday 3:30pm to 6:30pm @ The Young Women's Outreach Project NE8 4DY
Tuesday 3:30pm to 6:30pm @ The Winlaton Centre NE21 6BY
Wednesday 3:30pm to 6:30pm @ Birtley Harras Bank Family Hub DH3 2LN
Friday 10:00am to 2:30pm @ TIME Hub, Bill Quay Community Farm NE10 0UE

At these drop-ins, you will be able to meet with one of our emotional wellbeing and mental health practitioners who can help guide you to the pathway to reach your goals or can support you in problem solving to help overcome any challenges you might be facing. This might include:

• Feeling anxious 
• Low self-confidence
• Struggling with friendships
• Difficulty managing anger 
• Challenges in communicating emotions 
• Worrying about school 
• and anything else you may wish to have a chat about

Please pop along and have a look at our hub or meet our practitioners if you do have any questions or worries about accessing the hubs, we are ready to welcome you here!

To access our support, you will be required to register via our registration form on our website. This can be done with your practitioner during the session if you are 14 or over. If you are under 13, please bring along a parent/carer/trusted adult who can complete this form on your behalf!
