🧵💜 What a Fantastic Start to Sew Strong! 💜🧵

Today saw the very first workshop of our Sew Strong Project, funded by the amazing Weston Park Cancer Charity, and what a great session it was!

We were delighted to welcome people along. It didn’t take long for everyone to start sharing ideas, deciding what they wanted to create, and getting stuck straight into the sewing and creative activities. The room was full of conversation, laughter, support, and creativity from the very beginning.

Sew Strong has been designed to bring people together through sewing and creativity, helping to build confidence, reduce isolation, improve wellbeing, and create lasting friendships in a supportive environment.

💜 The project is completely FREE to attend, so if you or someone you know has been affected by cancer and would like to get involved, we’d love to hear from you.

📸 A Rare Sew Mindful Crafts Team Photo! 📸

We were fortunate enough to capture a photo of some of the amazing Sew Mindful Crafts team together recently! ❤️

With over 20 staff members and volunteers supporting our workshops, projects, events, and community activities, getting everyone in the same place at the same time is pretty much impossible! 😄

Behind every workshop, every cup of tea, every sewing machine set up, every grant application, and every warm welcome at the door is a dedicated team of people who give their time, skills, and energy to help make Sew Mindful Crafts what it is today.

A huge thank you to every member of our team, whether you’re pictured here or not. Your hard work, kindness, and commitment help us support hundreds of people in our community each year. 🧵💙

We couldn’t do it without you all.

🧵✨ What a fantastic afternoon at Sew Mindful Crafts! ✨🧵

Today we had the pleasure of teaching 15 amazing students from Sir Thomas Wharton Academy, and what a brilliant session it was!

It’s always a privilege to help inspire and teach the next generation, giving young people the opportunity to learn new skills, build confidence, and discover their creativity. We were incredibly impressed with how well everyone did, their enthusiasm, focus, and willingness to have a go was fantastic to see.

🌟 Another Busy and Rewarding Day at Sew Mindful Crafts CIC! 🌟

Today has been one of those days that reminds us why we do what we do. ❤️

We started with our Thursday Wellbeing Workshop, bringing people together through creativity, conversation, and connection. Then, with barely enough time to grab a quick sandwich, our amazing team moved straight into a fully booked workshop with the fantastic students from Willow Primary School. ✂️🧵

A huge thank you today goes to our incredible volunteers Linda, Michelle, and Jay, who worked tirelessly throughout the day to help make both sessions a success. Their dedication, enthusiasm, and support make such a difference to everyone who walks through our doors.

All our Volunteers truly are the heart of our organisation, and we couldn’t do what we do without them. 💙

Thank you to everyone who joined us today we hope you enjoyed your sessions as much as we enjoyed delivering them!

🚧 Something Big Is Coming… 🚧

our Men’s Only Social Group has been providing a safe place where men can relax have a chat, and share experiences, and support one another.

Now it’s time for the next chapter. 💙

We’re excited to announce that big changes are on the way!

🔥 A brand-new name
🔥 A brand-new identity
🔥 New branding and merchandise
🔥 New opportunities, activities
🔥 The same great support and welcoming atmosphere

This isn’t just a new look it’s about creating something bigger, stronger, and more recognisable for the men in our community.

We’ve been working hard behind the scenes, and we can’t wait to share what we’ve been building.

👀 Keep your eyes peeled over the coming weeks as we reveal the new name, logo, merchandise, and what’s next for the group.

The mission remains the same: supporting men’s mental health and wellbeing through real conversations, real support, and real community.

👊💙
