We are living in a mental health crisis and SAMS is there to support the immediate need of young people within our community through 1-1 or group pastoral care sessions.

Youth Cafe’
In 2025, SAMS plans to launch a YOUTH CAFE drop-in centre that will serve young people in Tadley. This Youth Cafe will provide after-school support, where young people can eat something for free and chat to a trusted adult in a place where they feel heard, connected and loved.
