Today we had our “nature for wellbeing” meet up! What a beautiful day for it, everyone received their own watercolour set to take when we go out and about, today we gathered things to paint at the end of our walk. It was so lovely to get out and about in nature with such a great group of women. These sessions have kindly been funded by Nova Wakefield District & Community Investment Gateway 🎨🍃

Today was the start of our “nature for wellbeing” session, it was great to meet our new members.
Due to weather not looking great & it been our first session we met in our craft studio & We began our “nature for wellbeing tree”, everyone added what they want to get from the group, and things they would like to try.
We will come back to this on the final week and add things they have learnt and that they have taken away from the sessions 🍃

See you all next week ladies!

The lovely jade will be working with us on a Wednesday for our “nature for wellbeing” sessions.
Jade has been attending our classes on a Thursday for a while now & will be a great addition.
Welcome to the team Jade 🫶

Tomorrow due to weather, our first session will be meeting in our craft room (Outwood), we will go over the plans for the next few months and I’ll give you the materials you will need 🎨🍃
it makes sense to have introductions when we aren’t in the rain for the first meet up ☔️

I’m very excited to share we have our creative assistant role filled! I know her very well which is why it has been so quick! I’m so pleased she can come on board, I will be sharing a post to introduce her over the weekend ❤️ the perfect person to do this along side me!

Plus we have a role for art therapist/artist to get involved, another paid role.
We are back with a bang today!

I’ll share more details tomorrow on the other role available. Sorry for so many updates today, once I’m sat working on something I need to get it all organised and planned! That’s my adhd brain for you 🤣 I’m either procrastinating or hyper focused 🤣 I’m sure a fair few can relate to that haha

Really looking forward to getting back to it with you all 🎨🍃

🌿 NATURE FOR WELLBEING – WE START THIS WEDNESDAY! 🌿

**fully booked**

Starting Wednesday 2nd September, 11am–12:30pm, we’re excited to welcome our first Nature for Wellbeing group. 💚

This one is a little different from our normal craft room based sessions — we’ll be out and about, taking a gentle stroll, enjoying nature, connecting with each other and stopping along the way for some nature-inspired creativity. 🌱🎨

For our first session, we’ll meet at Thornes Park, get to know each other, go through everything we’ll be doing over the 12 weeks, have a stroll and I’ll give everyone their own sketchbook and materials to use throughout the project. 📖🌿

🌱 Did you know? Research from the Mental Health Foundation found that 70% of UK adults said being close to nature improves their mood, while 49% said it helps them cope with stress.

So we’re going to spend the next 12 weeks in our sessions doing just that — getting outdoors, noticing nature, getting creative and taking some time for ourselves. 💚

We will be at different places around Wakefield each week and if we do have adverse weather we will meet in Outwood at our craft room to do nature crafts inside 😊 (always best to have a backup plan with our weather!)

A big Thank you to Community Investment Gateway Nova Wakefield District for funding this so we can provide these free sessions to our members 🍃🎨

**Please share 🎗️**
Our cancer support group has now been running for almost 4 years, and this little group is so incredibly close to my heart. ❤️

I started the group during my own cancer journey. I knew first hand how important it was to have people around you who understand — people you can talk to, laugh with, cry with, or simply sit and have a cuppa alongside.

I remember thinking that I needed to create something like this locally, so that other women going through cancer didn’t have to feel alone.

And almost 4 years later, here we are. 🥹❤️

One thing I’ve learnt along the way is that cancer doesn’t necessarily stop affecting you when treatment ends. Even when the appointments and treatment are over, you may still want someone to talk to who understands what you’ve been through - someone outside of your family and friends.

That’s what our group is about ❤️🎗️

It’s a safe, friendly and relaxed space where you can come along, have a cuppa, chat, make friends and take part in different creative activities. You don’t need to be crafty, and you don’t have to talk about cancer if you don’t want to.

You can simply come as you are. ❤️

We meet Tuesdays, 6pm–7:30pm in Outwood, and it’s completely free to attend.
