The community at Laing House is looking for a little support! đź’™

We’re seeking 12 new or gently used yoga mats to help make an upcoming wellness program possible on March 11. These mats will support youth participating in a Laughing Yoga session, with a beginner-friendly yoga session to follow in the weeks ahead.

How to donate:
• Please contact Walter (wdelong@lainghouse.org) or Jordan (jroberts@lainghouse.org) to confirm a drop-off time
• Mats must be dropped off at 1225 Barrington Street
• Unfortunately, we’re not able to arrange pick-ups

If you have a mat to share, you’ll be helping create a welcoming, accessible space for youth and young adults to connect and care for their wellbeing. Thank you for supporting the House and our members & community. ✨

This week is Eating Disorder Awareness Week: a time to increase understanding, challenge stigma, and remind folks that support is available.

Eating disorders can affect anyone, and recovery looks different for everyone. At Laing House, we’re committed to creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where young people can feel supported and understood.

If you or someone you know is struggling, you’re not alone. Find more support and information on our partners platform

At Laing House, we know that honoring heritage means making space for many lived experiences, cultures, and histories, and recognizing how they inform belonging, identity, and care.

Today, we celebrate the roots we carry and the shared community we continue to build together - Happy Heritage Day!

Laing House would love to take a moment to clarify how our members can access items from the Feed Nova Scotia Food Truck!

While the truck does still come weekly, it comes outside of our house hours. Because of this, members won’t access the truck directly - instead Laing House will ensure Feed NS food is available in the following ways:

Two ways members can access Feed NS food:

✨In-House Food Support
The house is regularly stocked with food from Feed NS. Members are always welcome to:
• take items home
• enjoy food while at the house

✨Item Requests (Wish Lists)
Members can ask for items to be set aside from the truck by reaching out to their CSW with a general wish list.
Please note:
• We don’t know what items will arrive each week
• Requests are best-effort, not guaranteed

This resource remains available to all members - even if you don’t see the truck on the schedule. 💛

Address

1225 Barrington Street
Halifax, NS
B3J1Y2

Opening Hours

Monday 10am - 5:30pm
Tuesday 10am - 7:30pm
Wednesday 9am - 7:30pm
Thursday 10am - 7:30pm
Friday 10am - 5:30pm
