Long Eaton Art Room
Mental wellbeing
We would like to run regular craft sessions open to all the community to improve mental health and wellbeing and reduce isolation. The sessions will be heavily subsidised to allow everyone access.
About this cause
We're a group who want to improve people's mental health and wellbeing through the therapeutic benefits of arts and crafts. Long Eaton Art Room is a community arts centre. We offer subsidised arts and crafts sessions to all members of the community with special focus on those most disadvantaged. Our sessions reduce social isolation, improve friendships and mental health and wellbeing.
How this cause brings people in the community together
Our project will bring more people together, reducing isolation and loneliness. People will form new connections and friendships. We will teach new skills in arts and crafts and improve mental health and wellbeing. People will feel more connected, more confident and more able to participate in society, education, volunteering or training.
