To meet others who may have a different cultural/religious/social background.4. To engage in activities that can build confidence and encourage a spirit of trying and not to be afraid of ‘failing’5. To engage in non-arts and crafts such as talks, quizzes and exercise.Our activities are easy going, fun and can lead to real friendships forming, we consider our sessions to be a part of a community and we look after, support and encourage each other.
