The Magpie Project provides mental health information, advice, support and counselling to local Korean individuals and communities in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. Our team has bilingual (Korean and English) staff and volunteers who support people to feel more confident to use local mental health services and supporting organisations.

One to One ~ Information, Advice & Support

It can be difficult to know where to turn if you, or someone you know, is experiencing emotional or mental health problems. We offer confidential 1:1 support from our Korean Magpie Outreach Coordinator. Whether you are seeking help yourself, or need advice on how to get support for a friend or family member, contact us to have a private, non-judgmental conversation about ways we might be able to help.

Drop-in Cafés ~ New Malden

Safe, non-judgemental café every Monday from 6:30pm - 7:30pm for people who want to find out more about what mental health support is available locally. These are welcoming spaces for people to enjoy refreshments, connect with others and take part in wellbeing activities. At our drop-in sessions, there is the opportunity to have a private chat if needed.
