Wellbeing support at the Coates Centre

Oakhaven Wellbeing is based at the Coates Centre, set within the grounds of Oakhaven Hospice. The Centre offers a space to meet with others who are affected by a life-limiting illness, are carers, or are experiencing a loss.

You are very welcome to drop in to the Coates Centre, which is open from Monday to Friday, between 10am to 4pm (closed bank holidays). Our trained, dedicated volunteers are available to chat over a cuppa and provide information about our services.

We offer a wide range of support groups, practical drop-in sessions, social groups and planned wellbeing activities every month... or just simply sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Wellbeing support in our communities

We understand that not everyone can get to the Coates Centre, so we bring Oakhaven Wellbeing out to you in your local community. We love to go out to cafés and community centres and we enjoy collaborating with many organisations in the community.

How to contact the Oakhaven Wellbeing team

If you would like to chat with one of our team to find out more information, you are welcome to pop in between 10am and 4pm, Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays). Find us at:
