Art project

Art ,whether it be:

  • Drawing
  • Painting
  • Colouring
  • Craft making
  • Clay making
  • Collage making

It is highly therapeutic and a welcome diversion from normal recovery life. Art and creation are an integral part of our program. Our art sessions are run a stone’s throw from our main facility but far enough away to be a welcome respite. It’s safe space to create.

All the art the clients create we exhibit in our art room , no one has to be Picasso to get involved. Some of the best art is from a person who has never attempted it before, and the difference free expression can make can be immense and so rewarding.

One of the most popular crafts we offer is making bracelets and chains which our clients make to give as presents to children and loved ones.

We link in with other organisations ( internal/ external) – we are currently in partnership with ‘Gasped’ to assist linking us with the wider local community.

Ryan said of doing the art class, ” When I’m drawing and painting , I just get immersed in the moment. At that moment nothing else matters just the creation. I can just relax and let go, its beautiful”.
