V Group

V Group vgroup@vmaic.com.au

V Group is a social group for people who have experienced mental illness. It is to be run by young people who have or are experiencing mental illness. V Group will provide its members with a chance to get out and meet people in similar circumstances. But - it is not a therapy group and carers or workers do not need to attend.

So what will we do? – Well ... there are so many possibilities! Some of the ideas we are thinking of at the moment:
-going our for meals/coffee
-movies
-bowling
-listening to live music
-shopping trips
-going to the Aquarium or Zoo
-live shows
-participating in community events.

But we’d also love suggestions on things that you’d like to do as well!
