Thrive Talking Café – Evening Sessions
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, whether that’s due to parenting pressures, caring responsibilities, money worries, loneliness, housing concerns or simply having too much going on.

Upcoming dates:
- Monday, 8th June
- Monday, 13th July
- Monday, 10th August
Time: 6.30pm – 8.00pm
No referral is needed and everyone is welcome. Tea, coffee, toast, biscuits and friendly faces are provided.

Carers Week – Supporting Unpaid Carers
During Carers Week, the Kings Arms Community Hub will be hosting a series of drop-in sessions to raise awareness of the support available to unpaid carers in Wellington.
Many people do not identify themselves as carers, despite regularly supporting a family member, friend or neighbour.
The sessions will provide information, advice and signposting, as well as an opportunity to learn more about local support available through the Wellington Cares project and partner organisations.
If you know someone who may benefit, please help us spread the word.
