Being called "Surrey’s best-kept secret" sounds lovely ….

For 30 years, Learning Space has operated on quiet dedication, doing life-changing work on the frontline, nurturing confidence and emotional well-being for local children and letting the results speak for themselves.

I in 5 young people are struggling with their mental health.

In today’s climate, staying quiet is no longer an option.
We are stepping out with a refreshed brand, a brand-new website, and a renewed commitment to our mission to make sure no young person in Surrey struggles alone.
Watch this space !

As we mark , it's important to recognise that one in five young people have a probable mental disorder (NHS England, 2023) and the need is growing.

Learning Space supports the emotional well-being and mental health of children and young people aged 5-18 in Surrey who are experiencing challenges such as anxiety, isolation or bullying.

We are dedicated to early intervention support, helping these children and young people to manage their anxiety and achieve their best hopes .

A massive thank you to Waitrose Esher and our wonderful local community! 💚🎃
We are absolutely thrilled to see our name on the Waitrose Esher donation board with an incredible £1,000 raised through the Community Matters green token scheme!
Every single token dropped by the local community helps us provide a lifeline for young people aged 5 to 18 across Surrey who are struggling with anxiety and depression.

But the generosity did not stop there! The amazing team at Waitrose Esher also filled our car boot with a fantastic haul of pumpkins! These will be used for our upcoming Halloween event in the Learning Space therapeutic gardens, giving the children a safe, nurturing space to build confidence and coping skills.

Thank you to everyone who voted for us, and a special thank you to the Waitrose Esher partners for championing local youth mental health. We could not do this without you!

It was a real pleasure welcoming the Mayor of Reigate and Banstead, Councillor Nick Harrison, to our Learning Space offices and therapeutic gardens! 🌸🌿

Our CEO, Mark Lister, and Corporate & Community Fundraiser, Rebecca Wheaton, spent time with Councillor Harrison discussing the vital importance of early help for children’s emotional well-being. Reaching young people before challenges escalate is not only deeply beneficial for their day-to-day happiness and security, but it also creates the foundation for a thriving local community where young people can grow up fully involved in their schools, workplaces, and neighbourhoods.

Thank you so much to Councillor Harrison for taking the time to visit, see our garden sanctuary, and champion the work taking place across our local constituencies.

CENTURY MILESTONE! 100 runs and 682km down! 🏃‍♂️🐾

Give a huge round of applause to our fantastic Chair, Stefan Nahajski, who has officially hit the century mark for runs this year in support of Learning Space!
Stefan committed to running 720km in 2026—clocking 60km every single month with his trusty four-legged partner, Shanty. That’s five times the distance he ran last year!

With the autumn chill setting in and dark, frosty winter mornings just around the corner, keeping up the momentum gets tough. He’s braved the heat and the rain, but now he needs that extra bit of encouragement to get him through the winter mud to the finish line.Every step Stefan takes is raising vital funds for children and young people who are struggling with their mental health and emotional wellbeing.

Just 60 minutes working 1-to-1 with a Learning Space practitioner can change a child's life.

Let’s rally behind Stefan and Shanty: Drop a comment below with your words of encouragement (or winter running tips!)

They did it! 🎉 Huge congratulations to our amazing staff members, Jo and Rebecca, for smashing the Run Reigate Half Marathon ! 🏅🏃‍♀️

Every single day, we have the privilege of seeing the incredible, life-changing work they do supporting young people who are struggling with anxiety. But their dedication doesn’t just stop when they finish work. To see them going above and beyond in their own free time, training for months to raise money for Learning Space, just shows how deeply they care about the young people we support. We are so incredibly proud of them!

The medals have been handed out and the legs might be aching today, but their fundraising page is still open! It is definitely not too late to show them some love and celebrate their massive achievement.

🎃 Calling all gardeners, allotment keepers, and local stores: Can you help our pumpkin appeal? 🍂

Autumn is here, and at Learning Space, we are getting ready for one of the most loved events of our year—our Autumn Fun Day at our therapeutic garden!

Pumpkin carving is so much more than just a Halloween activity for our young people. For children living with anxiety or navigating neurodiversity, sensory activities like scooping seeds, carving faces, and getting stuck into nature offer a peaceful, grounding outlet.

To make sure every child gets to take part, we are looking for donations of pumpkins and squashes of all shapes and sizes!

Can you help us?

🛒 Supermarkets & Local Grocers: Do you have community stock or seasonal surplus you could spare? ( & Partners, , )

🥬 Allotment Holders & Home Gardeners: Have an autumn glut, oversized squash, or wonky pumpkin? We would love to give it a purposeful home!

🌾 Local Farms & Farm Shops: Any spare harvest or oddities would mean the world to our carvers.

📍 We can arrange collection across Surrey or coordinate drop-offs at our site.

If you can donate or know someone who might, please leave a comment below or send us a private message!

32 miles along the Jurassic Coast with zero sensible excuses! 🥾🌊From 25–27 September, a huge team effort is taking place. Tom Wheaton, alongside 13 colleagues from ITV is tackling 32 miles of the South West Coast Path to raise vital funds for Learning Space and other charities.
Anyone who knows that coastline knows the views are stunning, but the hills are unforgiving. Each walker is choosing a cause close to their heart, and we are so proud that Tom has chosen to champion Surrey's children. Around 1 in 6 children and young people locally are struggling with anxiety and emotional distress. As a small Surrey charity, our mission is to intervene early—providing safe spaces, neuro-affirming care, and nature-based therapy so young people know they are not failing and have a bright future ahead. Tom is doing the miles and the climbs.

If you have a few pounds to spare to spur him on, here is what your gift achieves:☕ £5 – The price of a mediocre coffee. Skip it and donate!🌱 £15 – Buys plants and sensory tools for our outdoor therapeutic garden sessions.💚 £65 – Provides a one-to-one early-intervention session with a trained specialist.🩼 £100+ – Full rights to tease Tom about his sore legs on Monday.
