One of the biggest suggestions was for more activities during the day to help take their minds off the challenges they are facing and provide opportunities to learn new skills, socialise and have some fun.
So, over the last two weeks, that’s exactly what we’ve been doing!
Our support workers have been organising something different every day, including:
Arts and crafts
Movie afternoons
Bingo
Quizzes
Yoga
Litter picking
…and plenty more!
The response has been fantastic. It’s been wonderful to see our clients laughing together, building confidence, learning new skills and enjoying some much-needed time away from the worries of everyday life. These activities will continue over the coming weeks, and we’re excited to keep adding new ideas.
Do you have a hobby, talent or skill that you’d be willing to share? Whether it’s music, gardening, photography, cooking, board games, fitness or something completely different, we’d love to hear from you.
If you’d like to volunteer to run an activity with our clients, please get in touch – you could make a real difference to someone’s day.
