Peerfest 2018

On Saturday 20th October 2018 Thurrock Mind threw open its doors for a spectacular celebration with over 200 people from across the country, passionate about sharing the power of peer support.

Peerfest 2018 was an opportunity to:

Give it a go - Try something new

Take it away - Leave with new ideas

Pass it on - Share enthusiasm and experience with others

"It's all about sharing good practice, sharing ideas and learning from each other"

Held at the world-class Backstage Centre in Purfleet, Peerfest 2018 put the local community of Thurrock on a national map for the day. Highlights of the day included peer support in the Criminal Justice System, sharing your story safely, debate around peer support and social media, singing, yoga, drama and...more.

We heard inspiring stories from those groups nominated for our annual Marsh Awards and went on to celebrate with the winners. The day ended with an evening of music, dance and a fare of world food.

We want to hear your voice and your experiences
