Grow provides peer-support group meetings in a friendly and supportive environment for people experiencing emotional or mental health issues
About this Event

GROW has helped thousands of Australians to recover from a range of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, panic attacks, grief and loss and diagnosed mental illnesses.

Grow group meetings are run by the members themselves, according to a well-structured format. During the meeting, members can share their problems, learn how to re-build their lives and report on their own progress. Grow’s program of personal growth is based on changing negative thinking and behaviour, and developing understanding, acceptance and confidence is at the heart of the Grow program.


It offers strategies on how to:

  • Deal with an emotional crisis
  • Manage feelings
  • Think by reason
  • Realize personal worth 
  • Improve relationships

Becoming a Grow member gives you access to GROW groups, personal development using GROW literature (incl. Ted Talks, YouTube, articles, podcasts, research papers etc.), social activities, training, community building activities and much more. We are not a religious organisation – individual spirituality varies, and we are non-discriminatory. You’re welcome to use your own philosophical or religious beliefs as support.


Grow Groups are:

  • FREE
  • Confidential and members can choose to remain anonymous
  • 1.5 - 2 hour weekly meetings​
  • Open to people of all ages
  • No referrals, diagnosis or appointments needed. ​Just turn up!
  • 3- 12 members per group.
