💙 Can our local community help Keystone Counselling Service?

We have now settled into our new counselling rooms at Abbey Neighbourhood Centre in Thetford, but there is one little thing we desperately need: two electric fans!

Our counselling rooms don’t have windows and, particularly during this very warm weather, they can become extremely hot and stuffy. As you can imagine, sitting in a counselling session for an hour in a very warm room isn’t particularly comfortable for either our clients or our trainee counsellors.

Keystone Counselling Service receives no funding. Our counselling is provided completely free of charge to the community, our trainee counsellors volunteer their time while gaining the clinical hours required to qualify, and I also give my time voluntarily to manage the service.

That means we simply don’t have an income pot to dip into when things like this are needed.

So, before we look at other options, we thought we’d ask our community. 🌿

Does anyone have a good working electric fan they no longer need and would be willing to donate to us?

We are looking for two fans, ideally suitable for keeping a small counselling room comfortable without being excessively noisy.

If you can help, or know a local business that might be willing to donate one, please get in touch.

Sometimes something relatively small can make a very big difference to a service like ours.

Thank you from everyone at Keystone Counselling Service. 💙

🏡 Keystone Counselling Service has moved!

We’ve now completed our first week in our new home at Abbey Neighbourhood Centre in Thetford, and we’re pleased to be settled in and working right amongst the local community.

Our move from Riversdale House in Thetford town centre marks a new chapter for the service, but our purpose remains exactly the same: providing free counselling to our local community, while giving trainee counsellors the opportunity to gain the valuable client hours and experience they need on their journey towards qualification.

We’d also like to say a genuine thank you to the whole Keystone Development Trust team who make this possible.

A special thank you to Kate and Amber at Riversdale House, who looked after us so well during our time there, and to Alison, Ricky and the wider team at Abbey Neighbourhood Centre for helping us settle into our new space.

Keystone Counselling Service is a voluntary service, and it simply couldn’t operate without the people behind it who provide the rooms, practical support and infrastructure that allow us to keep counselling accessible and free.

📍 You can now find Keystone Counselling Service at Abbey Neighbourhood Centre, Thetford.

Here’s a little look at our new home. 💙
