🧠 There’s still time to book!

What actually happens in the mind when someone experiences mental ill-health? And what does recovery really look like beyond the headlines, hashtags and popular slogans?

Join counsellor John Cuturilo for an insightful and practical conversation exploring mental illness, recovery and wellbeing.

Drawing on his professional knowledge and lived experience, John will unpack:

- What happens in the mind during periods of mental illness
- What can support recovery
- Why self-care matters for ongoing wellbeing
- How we can develop a deeper, more informed understanding of mental health

This engaging session will cut through the confusion and explore mental health and recovery in a clear, accessible and meaningful way.

Over the past few weekends, our community has come together to try something new, move their bodies and enjoy some time focused on health and wellbeing β€” with previous sessions including Pilates, Zumba, and YogaπŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ’ƒπŸŽ¨

🎨 This weekend, participants joined Fathima for a relaxing adults-only clay art class, creating their own beautiful wall plaques and adding meaningful words and affirmations to make each piece uniquely theirs.
