Creative Living Centre

Today, we said farewell for a little while to the wonderful Kylie who has been the allotment lead for the past 6 months. Today we had a team breakfast and reflected on her achievements in this short space of time and how far the space has come. We have had a wonderful volunteering team supporting and learning. Organic produce that had gone straight from the allotment into the CLC Sunshine cafe, members who had their first chance of planting and made the space an extension of the centre, a welcoming environment where we have been able to hold sensory sessions. The funding for this post was available thanks to a grant from Onward homes and we hope to find future funding next year so that we can continue building on our green spaces work, showing that being outdoors and working together can help improve mental health and wellbeing. Thank you to every member who participated, every volunteer who pulled a weed and planted a seed and most especially to Kylie, the allotment legend. We hope that allotment group will come back next year with even more great ideas. #GreenSpaces #Prestwich #growingtogether #wellbeing #outdoors #allotmentlife #charity #funding

Honoured to participate in the World Mental Health Day event at the Creative Living Centre yesterday. 💚

Yesterday, 10th October 2024, in aid of World Mental Health Day we opened our doors to both members of the community and to provisions operating services within the area. We did this as a way to bring people together, so people could find out more about what is on offer in our area, not through a phone call or a leaflet, but by speaking to someone face to face. Mental health and wellbeing can be impacted by many things, but the provisions in the area can also help to improve them. So, on the 10th October, we facilitated a safe welcoming space where people had chance to get to know some of our partners across the wellbeing sector and for those partnerships to network. Together, we can do more #whatsoninprestwich #whatsoninbury #workingtogether #StrongerTogether #partnerships #community
