Story

The Lisburn Downtown Centre's mission is to create a supportive and inclusive Centre for adults struggling with their mental health. We do this through our 5 weekly and 1 monthly support group.

The Welcome Club - weekly Monday group aimed at promoting positive mental health for individuals with a learning disability and Autistic Spectrum Disorder.

The Friday Club - weekly group for people who suffer from a mental health illness.

Weekly Tuesday Drop-in - open to the whole community, supports individuals who are socially isolated.

Weekly Thursday Drop-in - open to the whole community, supports individuals who are socially isolated.

The Downtown Choir - a weekly group open to all in our community.

Cheer You Up Club - meets on the 1st Wednesday of the month for older people, designed to provide an opportunity for social interaction.

We acknowledge that there is no quick fix to mental health. It is a journey Downtown will travel with each member, supporting them when needed. Downtown will be with members through the highs and the lows, offering a safe place, words of encouragement, compassionate volunteers, self-help resources, mental health talks & facilitators, and fun activities along the way.
