Mind in West Essex moves to a new Harlow home

Posted on: December 28, 2025

Mind in West Essex has moved to a new base in Harlow. After more than 14 years at the Bush Fair hub, all Harlow services and staff are now based at the new site, Mind Sanctuary (the former Osler House GP surgery), located at Prentice Place, Potter Street, Harlow, CM17 9BG.

The move marks an exciting new chapter for the charity, providing a refreshed and welcoming space for their services, staff, and the local community. While the offices remain closed to the public over the Christmas and New Year period, the crisis alternatives continue to operate as usual during the evenings to ensure ongoing support.

Later in 2026, they will be celebrating the new Harlow home with a community open day for local residents and businesses, followed by a formal opening event.

To stay up to date with these plans and other news from Mind in West Essex,

Key dates for the move to the new site and our Christmas opening hours:

  • Christmas Eve (Wednesday): At 1pm, we close our doors at Bush Fair for the last time.
  • Christmas Day (Thursday) to Sunday, December 28: Our offices are closed to the public (however our crisis alternatives will remain open every evening as usual).
  • From Monday, December 29: All Harlow services and staff based at Mind Sanctuary.
  • Thursday, January 1: Offices closed for New Years Day bank holiday (except crisis alternatives).
  • From Monday, January 5: We welcome back our community activity groups, based at Mind Sanctuary for the first time.
