Middlesbrough 1st

Today marks the start of Mental Health Awareness Week. Taking care of your mental health is as important as ever, and we wanted to do our part to bring awareness to this event by sharing their message. Small actions make a large impact and taking these actions can help you improve your own mental health or give you the information you need to help a loved one that may be struggling. It could be anything from taking walks to talking with friends and family, the important thing is to remember that any action, no matter how small, can lead to change!

We'll provide the link to the event website for those that want to know more, and we send our love to those struggling and hope that they can find their own way to better mental health! Be kind to yourself and be kind to others!

Hello everyone, we're bringing you our update for our March session, hope you enjoy!

For our March meeting, our Brothers and Sisters group enjoyed another cookery class with Samia from Middlesbrough Environment City. This time we made 3 different types of pancake - Crepes, American Style, and savoury waffles. After a helpful reminder about keeping an eye on our sugar intake we sampled fruit and syrup toppings. Everyone had the chance to make their own fruit salad too. The savoury waffles had spices and vegetables added into the batter and made a tasty snack on their own!

After lunch we had a singing session with Kaitlin and Si from Grass Roots Music. As ever, some fabulous song choices and beautiful solos too. Thanks to Larchfield for hosting and our guest session leaders for their brilliant input.

We look forward to getting together again on Thursday 23rd April!
