Express Group Angus is a drop-in project for adults with mental health needs. It has been set up by Angus Mental Health Association to provide a place where people can meet socially in a relaxed and friendly environment.
 The drop-ins give adults with mental health needs the opportunity to meet, socialise and relax in an informal and safe environment. They can access support and information but primarily it is fun. A light snack, tea and coffee will be available during the drop-in.

WHAT AGE DO I HAVE TO BE TO USE THE FACILITIES?
Anyone between the ages of 16 and 65 years can access the service.
WHAT’S THE CATCH?
There isn’t any. The service is free and it’s entirely up to you if you want to pop along and join in the activities, chat and have a bite to eat.
CAN I BRING SOMEONE ALONG FOR SUPPORT?
YES. We at the drop-in know how difficult it is sometimes to walk into a new environment on your own. We actively encourage people to come along with a friend, family member or support worker if they wish.
