The Magic of Showing Up (and Believing!) There's a special kind of feeling when you're setting up for something you've poured your heart into. We arrived at the cinema, those familiar butterflies fluttering as we laid out the materials, anticipation buzzing in the air. 11 am ticked by, and a little whisper of "where is everyone?" crept in. We've all been there, right? That moment of wondering, "Did we do enough?" Did we share enough on social media? Did we miss a local group?

I know many of you understand that feeling of doubt. You put your all into something, and then… you wait. But even in those moments of uncertainty, there's always a spark of hope. I remembered talking to someone at our last session, and it reminded me how important it is to connect directly with people. We took a moment to show them how to navigate our WhatsApp channel, and their eyes lit up as they discovered all the updates. It was a beautiful reminder that sometimes, we just need to guide each other.

Then, this morning, a little ray of sunshine! A visit to my doctor, who’s been so supportive of Take P-heART, turned into a moment of pure joy. He told me that people are talking about what we're doing in meetings! Hearing that our efforts are making a difference, that we're reaching people, fills my heart with warmth.

And then, the magic began. At 11:30 am, one person arrived, then another, and another! Social media, it seems, was working its wonders after all. The cinema has been incredible, sharing our events in their emails, and we're so grateful for their support. And even better news: we'll be featured in the Sutton Scene in April!

It's clear, isn't it? We're growing. We're proving that we're needed. We're creating a community, a space where people can come together and enjoy the magic of conversation, arts and crafts. And most importantly, we're here for you.

To everyone who's been a part of this journey, thank you. Thank you for believing in us, for showing up, and for being a part of something truly special. We're here for you, and we invite you to come and join in the joy!

Hello everyone. So, firstly, i want to say sorry for the delay in updates. I had to step away from the website for a little bit. Once again, someone has posted online, that the earth will be taken over in 2028, and somebody who has ocd, paranoia, psychosis, believed this event will actually happen, so sleep has been eratic, eating has been eratic, and I have just spent time, tring to convince them that this event wont happen, like it didnt happen last year, or the time before, or before or ....

I had a fantastic meeting with Alex, he is trying to restore a community to how it use to be prior to covid, and he has developed a booklet with all the events held locally, so I have started to import these events in to the calendar. I think the whole website needs a revamp, to allow for further defining when events are going to be. question is, do i only display events, services, etc, when they are open or display them all with information on when they are open? going to have to think about that..

I have also been asked to co-host a support group, which I have been attending every wednesday, so that is fantastic news. that along with chaterbox which i attend every thursday....

right, need to email my future accountant and start registering the business so, im going to leave it here for today and hopefully normal services will resume from today. have a great day, but if you find you are struggling, then please use the website to find the support you need at the time you need it.
