Serenity Soul is a community wellbeing hub in Saltcoats, created to provide an inclusive and welcoming space where local people can connect, access wellbeing opportunities and improve their mental and emotional wellbeing.

We want to use this funding to provide a programme of free and accesssible wellbeing activities for the local community. The aim is to give people opportunities to try different approaches to wellbeing, meet other and discover activities that may help them manage stress, improve confidence, reduce isolation and feel more connected to the local community.

Rather than expecting people to already know what support they needm we want Serenity Soul to somwehere they can simply walk throught the door, take part and explore what works for them. Funding would allow us to bring in local facilitators and practitioners to provide a varied programme of sessions and workshops. Activities could include relaxation and mindfulness, sound and holistic wellbeing session, creative activities, confidence and personal development workshops, group wellbeing sessions and other community-led activities.

A key part of the project will be listening to the people who use the Hub and allowing them to help shape the programme. This will enable us to repond to what the community actually wants to see and create opportunities fpr people not only to attend, but to connect, participate and become more involved.
