‘Express yourself’ Peer Support 6 week course for 11 – 17 year olds – Wadebridge

We understand that opening up to a complete stranger can be tough – and that’s why we’ve got an alternative option for you. Our small support peer group sessions are a fantastic way to connect with others who might be going through similar challenges.

At our Express Yourself Sessions, we start with a “check-in” – a chance for everyone to share how they’re feeling (good week, bad week, or anything in between). But don’t worry, there’s absolutely no obligation to talk if you’re not comfortable doing so.

During the session, we’ll use a combination of verbal expression and art to help you explore your thoughts and feelings. It’s a great way to get creative, de-stress, and connect with others in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.

And we finish each session with a “check-out”, giving everyone the chance to share how they feel after experiencing some mindfulness and art. So what are you waiting for? Come join us and let’s de-stress together!

The sessions will be ran by 2 facilitators.

Our 6-week course will take place at the Wadebridge John Betjeman Centre, but places are limited – so be sure to sign up early to secure your spot.

It cost around us around £960 for a 6 week course for venue hire, materials and staff costs. Which would be around £27 per person per week. So we are asking for a ‘Pay what you can’ donation, suggested minimum donation £3 per week, £18 for the 6 week Course.
