Book your FREE Taster workshop!
We offer a 90-minute Creative Wellbeing Workshop or Mini Creative Enterprise Workshop to new schools or youth organisations engaging with us for the first time.
All we ask for is a meeting with the key decision-maker on the day of the taster workshop.
These are funded through the generous support of Morley Glass.
Thanks to our valued partnership, this is a fantastic opportunity to introduce your students to our creative programs at no cost.
​​.​​
​Our creative well-being workshops are great for young people because they nurture self-expression, boost confidence, and promote mental well-being in a fun and supportive environment.
​​​​​
Our 90-minute Creative Wellbeing Workshops engage young people (ages 10 to 18) in hands-on creative activities designed to boost mental health and wellbeing. Accessible to all, these workshops feature mixed-ability groups, ensuring inclusivity.
​
During each session, participants receive a unique 3D craft kit made from reclaimed wood, laser-cut by us. These kits are exclusive designs, allowing every student to build, decorate, and take home their own creation.
​
What to Expect:
-
Workshops are led by our experienced Creative Coaches.
-
We begin by introducing our social enterprise, sharing our values, and discussing the importance of sustainability through the circular economy.
-
We explore the positive impact of creativity on our mental health.
-
Followed by a demonstration of the craft project with tips for decorating.
-
Participants spend around one hour creating their projects in a relaxed, supportive environment. To enhance the calming atmosphere and promote mental well-being, we play soothing music throughout the session, creating a truly chilled and mindful experience.
-
We wrap up each session with photos of the final products and some feedback from the participants.
By the end of the workshop, students leave with not just a personalised product, but also a deeper understanding of creativity’s role in enhancing mental wellbeing.
​​​
“It was a great experience for our students, particularly some of our most
disadvantaged pupils. Providing them with a fun activity, the students were able to express themselves and their creativity.
Students explained that they found the activity calming, especially the Year 11 students who are approaching their exams.”
