Lancashire Mind Community Hub
A welcoming space to connect, create and feel part of your community.
Join Lancashire Mind’s free community hub in Leyland. Friendly weekly sessions for adults and creative social groups for young people aged 14–18.
At Lancashire Mind, we believe that good mental health is supported by connection. Sometimes all it takes is a friendly conversation, a shared activity or simply knowing there’s a place where you’re welcome.
Our Community Hub in Leyland offers free, welcoming sessions for adults and young people across South Ribble. Whether you’re looking to meet new people, spend time being creative, build confidence or simply enjoy a relaxed environment, there’s a place for you here.
There are no expectations and no pressure. You can come along as you are, get involved as much or as little as you like, and meet others in a safe, supportive space led by our experienced team.
Thanks to funding from South Ribble Borough Council, we’re able to provide these sessions free of charge, helping more local people build connections, reduce isolation and improve their wellbeing.
"You don't have to be good at art to come along. Creativity is just the starting point for helping young people relax, make friends and feel part of something. (Megan, Community Hub facilitator and CYP Coordinator)"
Young People’s Social Space
A creative space for young people aged 14–18
Being a teenager isn’t always easy. Our Young People’s Social Space gives young people somewhere they can switch off from everyday pressures, meet others their age and enjoy creative activities in a safe and welcoming environment.
Sessions are designed to help young people build confidence, develop friendships and express themselves through art and creativity. There’s always a member of the Lancashire Mind team available if someone needs a chat, but there is never any pressure to talk.
Whether you’re artistic or just want somewhere different to spend an evening, everyone is welcome.
Session details:
Every other Tuesday from 5.30pm – 7.30pm. No need to book – just come along!

Helping build stronger communities
Our Community Hub is about much more than activities. It’s about creating opportunities for people to connect, supporting wellbeing before people reach crisis point, and helping build stronger, more connected communities across South Ribble.
We’re incredibly grateful to South Ribble Borough Council for funding this project and making these free community sessions possible.
Whether you’re joining us for a coffee, getting creative, or simply looking for somewhere you can feel welcome, we’d love to see you.
