For 36 years, Centre 401 Trust has been a consumer owned and operated peer support service supporting people through lived experience, connection and community.

In recent years, our approach has evolved and is now guided by Intentional Peer Support (IPS), strengthening how we build relationships based on mutuality, shared learning and respect.

We recognise the value of lived experience and the unique wisdom each person brings. Through connection and shared understanding, we create opportunities for people to explore their experiences and move forward in ways that feel right for them.

People can engage in a range of ways, including facilitated workshops, one to one Intentional Peer Support and creative initiatives such as Tune Up, Mad Pride and Planet 401 Magazine. These spaces support people to share their stories, build confidence and strengthen connection with others.

Our Centre also offers a welcoming, informal environment where people can simply connect over a coffee, spend time with others and experience a sense of belonging.

We are not a clinical service. We walk alongside people, supporting autonomy, self-defined recovery and the development of tools that reflect each person’s own journey.
