Fellowship of St Nicholas (FSN) welcomes Counselling Plus Community to St Leonards Hub
Well-known and respected, local charity, the Fellowship of St Nicholas (FSN) has announced that local mental health charity Counselling Plus Community (CPC) will relocate to its St Nicholas Centre in St Leonards from 1st September 2026.
It is a collaborative move that brings two established charities together under one roof, strengthening the support services FSN delivers for children, young people and families across the area.
CPC will continue to operate its independent, effective and professional therapy to adults and young people (16+) in Hastings, Rother and the wider East Sussex area from its new home on London Road.
FSN’s CEO, Angelica McMillan says:
“I am so pleased that FSN and CPC will be working more closely together. We have been building towards combining our respective strengths at the St Nicholas Centre over the past few months. It’s such a great opportunity to enhance the support available to children, young people and families across our local communities.
Creating greater access to dedicated mental health services and a more joined-up approach to wellbeing is so needed. We have listened to our community and this collaboration is another step forward into ensuring family's journeys in life are happier, one step at a time.”
Verra Papaspyrou, CPC’s Chief Executive Officer, adds:
“I am very excited to be moving the CPC team into the St Nicholas Centre and to start the next chapter of our long journey.
Our roots lie in recognising the urgent need for affordable therapy within an area of significant deprivation, and I believe this ethos will be enhanced and further developed by working closely with FSN.’’
