Weave Your Way to Wellbeing: A Simple Weaving Course with Everyday Items
Discover the joy of weaving using items you already have at home! Our Simple Weaving Course is perfect for beginners and those looking to explore a new hobby without the need for specialised equipment. Join us for a fun and relaxing experience that nurtures your creativity and enhances your wellbeing. Sign up today and start weaving your way to a happier, healthier you!
Please ensure you let the College know at the time of booking if you have any dexterity issues or other concerns around using smaller pieces of equipment. Our crafting sessions often use equipment that may be more challenging to use with dexterity issues (such as pencils, pastels, sewing equipment or paintbrushes) and if informed in advance, we are able to make our sessions fully accessible for those with additional crafting support needs.
Please note that some of the materials used in these sessions may not be able to be taken on to ward environments.
Already enrolled with the College? Then just give us a call on 01924 316946 or email wakefieldrecoverycollege@swyt.nhs.uk to book on to the course.
