Holy Cross Centre Trust

Our original service-Holy Cross Centre is based in the crypt of the Holy Cross Church in King’s Cross-hence our name!  The Centre alongside our partners Mind in Camden and the Camden Volunteer Centre formed a consortium in 2008 to provide mental health day services throughout the Borough.

The centre offers practical help and crises support when needed. Its main opening times are in the evenings and weekends, the times when people can be most vulnerable to isolation. A benefits advisor is available during the Monday session.

The rest of the week we open to people who have opted to join our members-only sessions – generally people who need more support to get by. At the heart of the centre is a strong service user voice and active service user committee informing service provision and strategy.

The centre works in partnership with the City Lit and Westminster Kingsway Adult Education Colleges to provide a variety of vocational and therapeutic courses. Some service users are currently participating in a City & Guilds Level 2 and 3 Certificate in Mental Health.
