Our Story

I had the misfortune to experience a period of depression a while back. I discovered when I was in my late 30’s I had a knack for drawing, this discovery aided my recovery. I moved to Norwich in 2006, where my art journey continued at Norwich City College, with an Access to Art and Design course, followed with a Foundation Degree in Art and Wellbeing.

My aim was to start an art group facilitating art, specifically to people with low level mental ill health. Stress, anxiety and Depression. This journey has lasted 20+ years. It recently dawned on me that this is not for everyone, with the current financial climate, it was almost impossible to achieve my goal. However, a number students from my college year were luckier and are now practicing what I would like to preach.

This page was set up originally for me to promote my ‘business’, however a visit to an art page highlighted how some people are in need of a forum to discuss their own wellbeing with like minded individuals and share their story of how art helped and helps them.

It is also the aim of this group to signpost people to local groups and events and share the projects that are successful with the aim of helping promote the help that is out there and people are not on their own.
