These sessions combine calming yoga and mindfulness practices and a wide variety of crafts. The yoga and mindfulness sessions enable service users to develop body awareness, regulate their emotions and helps to reduce anxiety. The creative sessions allow service users to experiment with colour, texture and different materials. Whether painting, sculpting or crafting, the focus is on motor skills, self-expression, building confidence and self esteem while creating something unique.

Our woodwork and upcycling day enables service users to learn valuable crafting skills and techniques to build items from scratch and upcycle old furniture. These sessions cover safe use of tools, how to measure, cut, drill and create functional items. 

These sessions are run by professional chefs who teach the group to become confident cooks by learning the skills needed to cook nutritious food from all around the world. The sessions include learning kitchen safety and hygiene, knife skills and food prep, cooking techniques and food presentation.

Our outdoor experience days have proven to give even the most anxious members of the group confidence, determination and self-belief. The days focus on fun activities that promote physical improvement and teach teamworking and problem-solving skills.  We cover a wide range of activities from climbing, canoeing and cycling to animal care and working with nature during our bushcraft days. Working closely with nature is good for everyone’s physical and mental health.
