Allsorts Women’s Group
This group meets on a Thursday morning from 11am – 1.30pm at the Drop-in Centre. Group members take part in a range of activities and social events such as arts and crafts, ‘beauty days’, and alternative therapies. However, you can also come along just to get involved in the chat and have a coffee! You can attend the group for as long as you like. See the link on the right for the most recent programme of events.
The Media Group
This art group is supported by Community Education and meets in the Victoria Centre on a Thursday morning. It has been involved in a wide variety of projects such as photography, film making, creative writing and art projects. All members of the group are supported and encouraged to improve their existing skills and develop new skills at a pace dictated by them. Why not consider coming along and finding out more about this exciting group.
