Express yourself!
For this free, five-week peer support group, the focus is on fun, creative ways of expressing yourself through journalling and fun, art-based activities.
Becoming a mother can be the most extraordinary thing we ever do. It can also be the most challenging. It can be hugely beneficial to have an outlet for the emotional load and all the feelings we carry as mothers, and that's where Creativity for Calm is great.
Our Diversity Matters groups aim is to provide a voice and support for mums from diverse communities, bringing women together to talk about the complexities related to their culture, upbringing and heritage whilst balancing the challenges that come with the first year of motherhood. You absolutely don't have to be an artist to take part.
These groups are informal, relaxed and baby-friendly (up to 12 months of age). This is more than just an art group though. The focus is on your wellbeing, and having a chance to talk with other mums about what it's really like being a mum today, the expectations and pressures, and how to cope.
Bookings are essential due to limited spaces (and so we know how many biscuits to bring). Come connect with other mums in a warm, welcoming space.
