ESOL Tuesdays 12:30pm to 2:30pm Formal English classes taught by a qualified ESOL teacher. Please contact us for more information.

Yoga for relaxation: Wednesday 10am to 11:15am Life often leaves us feeling stressed, tense and out of connection with ourselves. The session uses SRY, a type of yoga that gently releases tension in the spine to let go of tightness throughout the whole body. It’s not about outward appearance, performance or achievement, it’s an opportunity to go inwards. All you need to do is bring yourself just as you are, dressed in comfy, loose clothes and warm socks..

Chat Café: Wednesday 11:30am to 1:30pm Drop in for a chance for non-English speakers to practice listening and speaking in a relaxed and supportive environment. A qualified teacher will support the sessions, but these are not formal ESOL classes. You can gain confidence and improve your English skills and meet other women learning English. Tea, coffee and biscuits provided, babies and toddlers are welcome.

Art Group: Thursday 10am to 12pm A drop-in art group that runs every week. This group is user-led; exploring different techniques, artistic styles, and mediums from collage, to quilling, to watercolour and everything in between. Join us for a fun, pressure-free exploration of your artistic side. The kettle will be on and all materials are provided, so why not pop by and give it a try? 

Freedom Programme: A confidential, safe and supportive space for women who have been affected by domestic abuse. This 12 module course can help you to understand what happened to you. It’s a rolling program and you can drop in at any stage. Contact us for details.
