Preparing for World Mental Health Day
❤️🦋10th October 2026🦋❤️
This year is all about ‘Lived experiences heard’, listening and hearing others and …
* Listening to yourself
* Being kind to yourself
* Celebrating yourself
* Remembering that doing your best one day looks completely different to the next

If you are fighting a quiet battle today, please know:
* Your story matters,
* Your feelings are valid,
* And you are absolutely not alone.
Take a deep breath, grab a warm drink, and treat yourself with a little extra grace. 🤍

Steven and Dominic have had a brilliant holiday in Majorca with their SHL Carer. They hired a boat and visited some beautiful coves amongst other things. 🏖☀️

Dominic has been working on his skills in the coffee shop this week. He has been training in taking customers orders, using the till and has been adding to the drinks that he can make on his own using the cofffee machine in the Barn. Well done Dominic, you should be very proud of yourself

We have a great range of yoga classes at the Wellbeing Centre.
Tuesdays at 3:30-4:30pm is our Chair-Assisted class. If you love the mind and body benefits of a yoga class but can't get down (and up again!) from a yoga mat then our chair-assisted class is perfect.
And only £4 pay as you go
