Helping to keep local Mental Health support on the High Street
Become a Revival Proud Member (RPM)
So what is an RPM?
The Revival Proud Membership initiative was created in response to the local community coming together in support of sustaining a centrally accessible cafe hub and mental health service. RPM’s invest in local mental health by pledging from just £10 a year (that’s around 83p a month).
This support helps us maintain our central High Street location, ensuring that Revival remains a visible and accessible haven for those seeking comfort, understanding, and a sense of belonging.
What are the benefits of being an RPM?
Firstly, RPM’s benefit from knowing their money goes directly to a locally rooted social enterprise responding to local need and fighting to keep mental health a priority. They also benefit directly from 10% off in the cafe on Thank You Thursdays and staying informed and up to date via the REVIVALIST, the Revival monthly newsletter.
This annual contribution directly supports Revival’s commitment to providing a welcoming, inclusive space for mental health support and community connection for ALL.
Together, we can create a stronger, kinder community – one cuppa at a time.

We were recently reminded after the tragic death of 19yr old Ashton Harrington, the importance of sharing information about the location of Bleed Kits.Ashtons mother Camille is currently campaigning for more bleed kits in the area and we support her by sharing the link below. We are proud to have recently worked with The Waterloo Centre to install a Bleed Kit at Revival in the high street.Waterloo CentrePlease share the link and let the community know this is available to use in an emergency. www.change.org/p/for-ashton-make-publicly-accessible-bleed-kits-available-in-towns-across-the-uk?...
💬Do you want my advice, or would you like me just to listen?” 💛I had the privilege of hosting the Supporting your child or teen’s Mental Health: Talk & Support session last night at Revival. This was just one take away, the evening was packed full of interesting and important information.Natalie from Campfire Counselling shared her professional experience as a counsellor and former teacher alongside her personal experience as a mum. We covered so much, but a few other things really stayed with me:💛 Small steps count. Using a traffic light system to interpret and support - if something feels “red” for our young person, how might we help and support them to make it feel amber? Might too many green experiences flag the need to watch for burn-out and what support would make that next step manageable?💛 Parent/carer needs matter too. The A B C of self-care - “Am I okay to co-regulate right now?” Taking a Breath and being Calm - slowing ourselves down can be part of supporting our children.💛 Connection can happen side by side. Taking the pressure of direct eye contact and ‘interview style’ interactions with side-by-side sitting and how sometimes a walk or a car ride as an everyday moment together creates the space to talk.💛 Rest looks different for everyone. Even when things feel good, we still need time to pause and decompress - parents/cares and our young-people alike.The discussion afterwards was such a valuable part of the evening: parents sharing stories, challenges, strategies and things they’re still working out. There is real comfort in talking with people who understand.I’ve written up my fuller reflections and the practical ideas we discussed on a blog, available soon on the Revival website: www.revivalkent.co.uk/blog-vlogThank you, Natalie, and everyone who joined us.📅 Next session: 7 December at 7pm📍 Revival, 58 High Street, WhitstableWe’re also delighted that Natalie will be joining our Mental Health Bank to offer these sessions monthly from January 2027.We’d love you to join us 💛#RevivalFoodAndMood #Whitstable #ParentSupport #MentalHealthBank
