"Time", a valuable thing in our life. Sometimes we underestimate it, not realising how precious it is.

So, sending time with our group, is always relishing. The laughs and jokes and support given within the group is priceless.

We continue to work together, looking at ways to manage our everday lives, how we can cope better, not all of us have the same approaches, as we are all unique. So what works for you? We used the time to reflect and understand what suits our needs, what works for me.

Not forgetting using our time to be creative, and play games which has been entertaining, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Together we use the time to share parts of us and smile in each others company. Thank you.

What a session today, it was really nice to welcome a new member in to the group, and to see some old faces returning after illness. Today we explored mindfulness and what works for people and what they have found helpful before. We was also lucky that a group member brought in her equipment to make badges and fridge magnets where we made quotes and things we like to put on our fridge to help us with our diets.
It was also entertaining to try out a members quest machine with various activities, one of the group leaders was not so keen on one of them, she got scared pretty quickly 🤩. Below is some of the pictures taken from today. (all permission received to post).
Looking forward till next week

Fresh start is looking forward to Wednesday especially as the members are using their voices sharing what they would like to do and bringing items in and their ideas.
Fresh start really enjoys hearing the laughter from their members even if it's at the staff expense 😂

Todays group session was all about the laughter, here at Fresh Start we laughed together trying to beat the clock to name things in just 5 seconds, some where better than others at it, others well they made up their own rules which just made it just as funny. Laughter is the best healer. We are honoured to be part of our members lives its a privilege to watch them grow in confidence and overcome some challenges, but here at Fresh start you never have to do anything alone. This game is one we will be using a lot I'm sure.
Group runs Wednesday 10-12:30 £5 to attend with unlimited refreshments.
