🌿 Wellbeing in the Woodland 🌿

Last week’s Wellbeing in the Woodland went really well, with a lovely mix of a few new faces and some of our regulars joining us.

It was a chance to slow things down, spend some time outdoors, connect with others and enjoy a bit of space away from the usual rush. Raz in particular seemed to find it very relaxing, as you can probably tell from the photos! 😴😂🌳

This will most likely be our final Wellbeing in the Woodland session for this year, but there’s plenty more to come.

Keep an eye on our pages for more events, activities and opportunities to join us over the coming months. 💚

Thanks to everyone who came along and helped make it such a lovely session.

THIS WEDNESDAY - FREE MINDFULNESS SESSION FOR MEN

🌿 Men’s Meet-Up | Mindfulness Evening

Our next Men’s Meet-Up is coming up on Wednesday 30th September, 7:30pm–8:30pm at The Brew, Spark Oldham - Fitton Hill, 1 Fitton Hill Shopping Precinct, Oldham, OL8 2QP.

This time, Emma England from Holistic Wellbeing Services will be joining us to lead a relaxed mindfulness session.

You don’t need any experience of mindfulness, there’s nothing you need to prepare and there’s no pressure to talk or share anything. It’s simply a chance to slow things down for an hour, switch off from some of the noise of everyday life and give yourself a bit of time.

🧘 Mindfulness with Emma: 7:30pm–8:30pm
📅 Wednesday 30th September
📍 The Brew, 1 Fitton Hill Shopping Precinct, Oldham, OL8 2QP

As always, the Men’s Meet-Up is friendly, informal and open to men who fancy coming along. Whether you’ve been to our sessions before or this would be your first one, you’re very welcome.

Come down, take an hour for yourself and see what you think. 🌿💙

🔥 Mike is doing a FIREWALK! 🔥

On 19th November, I’ll be stepping well outside my comfort zone and walking across hot coals to raise money for Spark Oldham’s work with local men and boys.

The money raised will help us continue creating opportunities for men to connect, look after their mental health and wellbeing, meet other people, try something new and simply make a bit of time for themselves.

A lot of men can find it difficult to reach out or ask for support, so having relaxed, welcoming spaces where people can just turn up and be themselves really matters.

If you’d like to sponsor me, every donation, big or small, will help us keep this work going across Oldham.

Thank you for the support ❤️‍🔥
