At Sam’s Fife there is always a warm welcome by a team of mental health peer workers who offer time-space-compassion. Peer workers have their own lived experience of mental health issues and a recovery journey. Peers can offer compassion from the perspective of a lived journey.

One- to-one support is offered at Sam’s Fife, with the support starting with what is important for the person that day. Sam’s Fife is a safe space where you can explore wellbeing, relationship, family issues, crisis situations and suicidal thoughts.

People are welcome to attend with a family member/friend/ worker...Sam’s Fife is a 16 years plus (and no longer in School education) project, therefore people have to be over 16 when attending or attending with someone.

Sam’s Leven is near to the bus station and railway station. There is car parking across the road from the building. 

Sam's Leven is located within Forth Street Hall. It is a large building that is located a short distance from the main town centre in Leven.

A safe, welcoming space to have a conversation with a peer worker...the hall is a large welcoming space, with lots of seating areas. There is a sofa area and areas with tables and chairs.

It is not likely that a person will have to wait for support however there is a waiting area that has Sam’s Fife magazines and leaflets to read.

There is an accessible ramp to the side of the building and a pathway to the front. The door has a doorbell, a peer worker will meet a person at the door and welcome them into Sam’s Fife.

On accessing Sam’s Fife a peer worker will offer a warm welcome, explain about Sam’s Fife support and get the kettle on! People will be offered the time - space - compassion to explore what is important for them that day.
