Arts and craft sessions
Our art and craft sessions give members the chance to explore their creativity through painting, collage, and simple hands-on projects. Each activity is designed to promote self-expression, relaxation, and a sense of achievement while having fun togethe
Music circles and instruments
In our music circles, members can enjoy making music as a group—whether by playing instruments, singing along, or simply feeling the rhythm. Music has a powerful way of bringing people together and lifting spirits, and these sessions are full of energy and joy.
Cooking and sensory
These sessions engage the senses through interactive cooking and playful sensory activities. Members can explore textures, tastes, and smells while building confidence in everyday skills and enjoying the satisfaction of creating something themselves.

Our dance and movement activities are all about having fun while staying active. With gentle, accessible movements set to uplifting music, members can move freely, boost their mood, and improve coordination in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere

nteractive Group Games and Relaxation
We end with group games and calming relaxation exercises that encourage teamwork, laughter, and mindfulness. It’s a great way for everyone to unwind, connect, and leave each session feeling refreshed and happy.
