Creative Wellbeing

The aim of this programme is to be delivered as an on-going core programme throughout the year delivered either weekly or fortnightly as 2 hour sessions.  Delivered by local Art Facilitators who offer a range of creative activities to engage with or even for clients to bring their own creative activities to the group.  An informal drop-in group for clients with a diverse range of mental health issues. The benefits to clients would be:

  • Increased social connections

  • Increased access to creative activities

  • Increased confidence and self-esteem

  • Increased resilience
