Hi everyone! 👋💜

We’re currently busy getting everything ready for our groups returning after the summer programme! ☀️

📅 Groups will officially be back from the week beginning 7th September, and we can’t wait to have everyone back! Our full weekly timetable will follow over the next few days.

🍴 NEW GROUP – FOOD, MOOD & YOU
We’re really excited to be launching a brand-new group called Food, Mood & You, running:
📅 Every Thursday
⏰ 6:45pm–8:45pm

Food, Mood & You is a year-long food and wellbeing programme where young people will use cooking and food as a fun way to build confidence, independence and important life skills. Across the programme, they’ll learn practical cooking skills, food hygiene, budgeting and meal planning, while also exploring how food can link with our mood and wellbeing. There’ll be plenty of cooking challenges, activities and opportunities for young people to have a say in what we make and do! 🥘🧠💜

⚠️ Unfortunately spaces are limited to a maximum of 15 young people.
As this programme will run across the year and builds from week to week, we’re looking for young people who are interested in taking part regularly and can attend as many sessions as possible.
If your young person would like to take part, please complete the sign-up form attached below, or reach out to Demi 👇

https://forms.gle/McRgjPp8ubzRW1my6

Completing the form doesn’t automatically confirm a space. Once we’ve received the sign-ups, we’ll contact parents/carers directly to confirm who has secured a place.

We’re really looking forward to getting everything started again and seeing everyone back at The WHY Project! 💜
