  • Increasing a sense of routine, structure and self-worth  
  • Promoting health and wellbeing - time together and a safe and trusting space to open up to peers 
  • Providing peer support for mental health - checking in with each other - "anyone struggling today?"

  • Cost of weekly room hire for a year (£350)

  • Cost of additional monthly or quarterly healthy activities and travel out with the community centre (e.g archery, bowling)

We are applying for funding to allow us to promote and increase group membership and to help increase ways for participants to share their art. The art of photography is a skill that can be learned and  applied by nearly everyone. The group has already undertaken a successful exhibition, and produced postcards to raise funds. We want to have a further exhibition, to produce more postcards of members photography and sell these to raise funds for local charities.  We feel that participants sharing their photography will raise their confidence and promote wellness and postive mental health. The postcard and exhibition aspect of the project will showcase what is good about the Three Towns rather than 'buy into' negative views and opinions, thereby promoting community spirit and appreciation. costs will be as follows, print cartridges - £200, Mounting Boards - £80, Postcard printing £100, Banner/flag £200, Craft knifes/tape/backing card £100, travel costs £200.
