Growing Strong is a creative group for individuals coping with mental health challenges in Bridgend. Over the weeks participants have been experimenting with many different art forms: painting, printing, collage and creative writing, often around a seasonal theme.
Gathering together to create each week in a safe space has facilitated socialising, relaxation and sharing without judgement or expectation. In each session, participants share some words on the theme which is collated into a group poem so that everyone’s voice is heard.
At the end of the sessions, the poems and artworks will be collected into a booklet/ exhibition to celebrate everyone’s achievements.
