Welcome to the Healthier Sheringham directory

Sheringham is a town blessed with 300+ organisations providing an incredible level of support, helping to improve our quality of life, health and wellbeing. Many in our community are unaware of what is available within Sheringham, so Healthier Sheringham was developed to bring these organisations closer together to build a more resilient and healthier community.

This community directory is a Healthier Sheringham Partnership project, which collates this information and mirrors the community connectors page and interactive map on the NNDC website (this should always have the latest information as it can be amended via the community connectors page at NNDC).

The directory is split into 2 sections:

• Practical support that can help prevent a crisis by keeping well and independent

• Information about activities and societies to keep everyone connected and active in Sheringham, both as a participant or as a (always welcome) volunteer

Entries marked with a V need volunteers to run. Please contact the organisation if you can help If funding is obtained, this directory will be updated annually

Need help in a Crisis?

Aylsham Rest Hub - Norfolk and Waveney MIND - Red Lion Street Aylsham NR11 6ER Day Time Hub is open to everyone aged 18+ who require wellbeing support either be via walk-in, professional referral or by calling 111 Mental Health Option. At the Hub, we provide 1-2-1 & group support sessions to help individuals through their recovery journey. Evening Sanctuary - Opening Times – 6:30pm – 12am (Monday, Wednesday & Friday) The Evening Sanctuary provides crisis support at those periods of time when most people could be going through difficulties alone. We offer referral and appointment only sessions between 6:30pm – 12am. The sessions are provided by trained Intensive Crisis Workers that will listen and provide relevant support with a follow up appointment from the Day Time Hub. Ensuring every individual can access quick, effective, holistic and non-clinical support.
