Nature Spaces July 2024

We continued working on our Nature Spaces sessions in July, we created embroidered felt decorations, lino printing, resin jewellery and tin milagros. 

We enjoyed learning all these new exciting crafts. 

These sessions were funded by the DHIP Grant.

 

Create Space @ Long Eaton

At our last session Create Space workshop with the Long Eaton Peer Support Group we created bottle flowers painted with acrylics. 

They looked amazing.

The project was kindly funded by the Public Health Covid 19 Grant. 

West Hallam Well Dressing - Why Talking Fixes

We partnered with the charity 'Why Talking Fixes' to create a well dressing for the West Hallam Well Dressing Trail. The charity help young people to recognise suicidal thoughts and where to go for help. We worked with 3 secondary schools - Kirk Hallam, St John Houghton and Ormiston Academy, to make the well dressing while talking about how to combat feeling down, feeling like their is no hope and to talk to someone we trust, friends, teachers, family.  

We took photos of the well dressing at the event and created postcards with support information on the reverse, these will be placed in care bags which are given out to young people by the charity.

The project was funded by Erewash Small Grant Scheme.
