A Royal Afternoon for Chelsea Community Champions...

Our ChelseaCommunityChampions enjoyed a wonderful visit to Buckingham Palace, exploring its beautiful rooms, fascinating history and stories.

For some members, the visit made an experience possible that might otherwise have been out of reach.
One member shared:

“Would have hoped to visit one day but couldn’t have afforded at present. This trip made it possible.”

Members described leaving feeling happy, excited and grateful, with one summing up the day as feeling “privileged, grateful and uplifted.”

A huge thank you to Tori and the Palace team for making us feel so welcome, and to everyone who came along and made the afternoon one to remember.

Growing, making and creating !

SMART members have been getting stuck into a lovely mix of gardening, creativity and wellbeing activities recently.

We’ve harvested ripe tomatoes, picked fresh mint for tea breaks and made lavender and calendula salve and facial serums.

By popular request, we also brought back our aromatherapy roller bottles, with members choosing their own scents, creating personal blends and even designing individual names for them with the label maker.

A lovely combination of growing, sensory experiences, creativity and self-care at SMART

Thanks to our wonderful project lead Hamida for her creativity and guidance

A few snaps from the last of our summer gardening sessions...

Alongside time in the garden, we explored some creative botanical processes like making our own cyanotypes and experimenting with turmeric sun printing using leaves and flowers from around us.

A lovely way to bring together gardening, nature and creativity as our summer sessions come to an end.

Thanks to the wonderful Hamida for leading all of our sessions

Have Your Say. Be Heard.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us this week for our meeting with commissioners.

It was an important opportunity for SMART members to hear about upcoming changes to local mental health services, ask questions, raise concerns and share what matters to them.

Most importantly, it created space for members’ voices and lived experiences to be part of the conversation about what comes next.

Thank you to our commissioners for coming along, and to every member who took part and spoke so openly.

The conversation doesn’t end here. We’ll keep listening, keep asking questions and keep making sure our members have opportunities to be heard.

What does good mental health support look like to you?

Ahead of our meeting with commissioners next Wednesday, we’ve been thinking about this question...

Amelia took these images are from Intimacies of Care – Spaces of Grief and Possibility at the Wellcome Collection, exploring people’s experiences of mental health care and what they felt they really needed.

It’s a powerful reminder of why lived experience needs to be heard when services are being shaped.

This Wednesday, SMART members have the opportunity to do just that.

Wednesday 2nd September from 11am
St John’s Church, 461–463 King’s Road, SW10 0LU

Come along, ask questions and have your say. Your voice matters.

Have Your Say

Changes are coming to local mental health services, and we want SMART members to be part of the conversation.

Come along, hear what’s planned, ask questions and have your say as we move forward together....

Throwback to June and our Pride gardening session with Hamida

This session was all about inclusion, individuality and celebrating what makes each of us unique

Members created their own Rainbow Aromatherapy Roller Bottles, choosing from a beautiful selection of essential oils including rose, lavender, geranium, frankincense, vetiver, bergamot and orange.

Everyone was encouraged to choose the scents that spoke to them, create their own personal blend and give it a name.
