Community based workshops

We have over 15 years of experience of working with vulnerable people in voluntary organisations within the community.

The social impact that we influence is of extreme importance to our community. Especially as East London is within the bottom boroughs in terms of economic deprivation.

Art and creativity is well known for being inclusive and giving people focus. We support people with mental health issues, withdrawn people with behavioral/emotional issues and people with depression issues through the workshops into socialising and sharing with others.

These projects are tailor made to the specific requirements of our partners/educational institutions and we carry them out on location or on our own premises.

Our working relationships are with; Mind in Tower Hamlets and Newham; The Peabody Trust; Family Mosaic; Grace Women’s organisation; Selhurst Court Community Centre; St. Dominics RC School. We are currently in discussions with various organisations for future working partnerships.

Workshops details:

• Students learn within a tailor made setting

• Location is flexible either at our base or organisation's base

• A wide variety of subjects can be taught or a mix of all

 We were invited to take part in The Linc Centre's International Women's day event held at The Cafe Reconnect in Bow East London. We had 4 'taster' stalls: Natuaral Hair, Cake Decorating, Greetings Cards and Making recyclable shopping bags. We also had fun creative activities for young children.
