Free Wellbeing Courses - July, August & early Sept 2026
Applying for a short course

The courses are run by Windmill Hill City Farm staff, but NHS Talking Therapies fund them. If people want to come to any of the courses, they will need to either:

• Visit their website: NHS Talking Therapies - North Somerset & South Gloucestershire
• Call: 0333 200 1893
• Text ‘YOU’ TO 88802

People will then need to complete NHS Talking Therapies’ assessment and meet their suitability criteria, and then they can be put on the course. If you have any questions about what to expect during the course, or how to apply, please do get in touch.

***** If time is short before the start date, please apply directly to Windmill Hill: Windmill Hill City Farm Volunteer and Short-Course Application Form*****

Attend a Be a Councillor sessions

Thought about becoming a councillor, but not sure if it’s for you? You’re not alone.

That’s why we’re running free Be a Councillor sessions to help you understand what the role is really like. Hear from councillors, find out what support is available, and ask questions in a welcoming, inclusive space.

These sessions are for Bristol residents, and we especially welcome people who are currently underrepresented in local politics.

Further information can be found on the Bristol City Council Webpages here.

When?
Online: Thursday 2 July 2026, 7pm to 9pm
In person: Saturday 17 October 2026, 10am to 12 noon, City Hall
Book your place through Eventbrite:
• Thursday 2 July
• Saturday 17 October
