SPACE Listening Service
A safe space to be heard, supported and valued
Sometimes life feels overwhelming, and you just need someone to listen.
Space Women’s Listening Service offers free, confidential, one-to-one listening support for women aged 18 and over. Our trained Listeners provide a calm, non-judgemental space where you can speak freely and feel truly heard.
WHAT IS THE LISTENING SERVICE ?
Space Women’s Listening Service provides free, confidential listening support for women who need space to talk.
Our trained Listeners offer compassionate, non-judgemental listening without pressure, advice or expectations. This service is not counselling or therapy, but a supportive space where you can reflect, offload and feel heard.
Where appropriate, Listeners may gently signpost to additional support services.
All sessions are confidential, respectful and centred around your needs.

HOLISTIC WELLBEING FOR WOMEN
A space to move, talk, and be truly listened to
Holistic Wellbeing for Women is a free weekly service delivered by WAM Community in collaboration with Canons Leisure Centre, Mitcham. It brings together gentle physical activity and confidential listening support, offering women a safe, welcoming space to focus on both body and mind.
