People who use a drop-in centre in Didcot have created a wall hanging, symbolising partnership, for a community mental health team.

People using the centre -- run by Oxfordshire Mind -- at St Peter's church hall, in Newlands Avenue, made the 6ft by 5ft wall hanging by stitching together individual pieces of fabric.

Oxfordshire Mind day services co-ordinator Jill Green said: "It's a gesture to symbolise the partnership between the two organisations. Some of our service users made the patches during an art project and we were inspired to join them together as a gift.

"The message is that we're working together and it's an advertisement to people in the town about the services that are available."

The wall hanging is in the community mental health team building in Mereland Road.

Whistlestop is open on Monday and Wednesday, between 10am and 3pm.

The service offers counselling and advice to people with mental health problems.
