6 Week Family Programme
Our families have really enjoyed the sessions and taken a lot from them. It has helped our school to connect with the families and offer something unique. The children were excited to craft alongside their parents and showed great delight in what they had made. Parents reported it had made them think about emotions and understand more about how their child was feeling. Our children enjoy playing the Emotionality game in our nurture groups and practitioners have found it to be a really useful resource in supporting the children’s emotional development.

It was great to be able to spend time together doing craft projects and thinking about our feelings and how we can express them. My son really likes art so it was a great way to engage him in a less direct way but he still picked up on the themes and I have noticed him using some of the strategies we talked about at home. I would recommend the course, even just as a chance to spend some positive time with your child doing something you both enjoy! Thanks Laura (parent, November 2022)
I have spoken to many people over the years ad I have done a parenting course and I have learnt more from this programme than the others put together. I am a guardian with 3 children on SGO’s. I have been fighting for over 3 years for help. I TRULY WISH I HAD DONE THIS COURSE 4 years ago. It has been marvellous. So informative. It gives confidence and you spend quality time with the children which is what we need. Cynthia (grandparent. May 2023)
9 Week Body, Mind. Future – Adult Programme
I really enjoyed the sessions and looked forward to Carol and Maria’s visits each week. The sessions have taught me to take care of myself more, understand my nutritional needs and to try new foods, also to check my body for any changes. Following the sessions I can now work to achieve the things i want with determination and positivity and be more confident and believe in myself . Feedback score 28/30 Megan September 2022
I loved the cre8ability sessions, it was the favourite part of my week. I felt comfortable in the sessions and enjoyed making so many different crafts. I can now relax more and be calm and positive. I now know more about what I want in my future and will focus more on family time. Feedback score 30/30 Carla September 2022
