It happened. 27th Dec, Throwley Yard Cinema, 11am. We hosted our first art session. We had 8 people come, and spend the majority of the day with us. the feedback is amazing, so, yes, we are going to make it a repeating event. We provided supplies, books to colour and, someone to talk to. The day ended up with conversations more than creative art, except for the oranges and cloves which one participant brought to do, along with the whole history behind the oranges and cloves. We are looking at several different venues in Sutton along with the Selkirk pub to see which would be better suited, but at the moment, the cinema is winning.

so, come along to the next event, where you can be as creative or talkative as you want, all free of charge.

Its amazing, how events occur, starting with an idea which came from attending an appointment to see the Drs, to going to a Recovery College, to finding out about Sutton Mental Health Foundation, being introduced to Sutton Nightwatch, and now, Sutton Nightwatch introduced me to SpearLondon, where I am now attending one of their events, with a laptop, a Tablet and 100 postcards, talking to other Service providers and Service users, telling them about the website, demonstrating how it works.

Hearing how amazing the website is, how it can be used, even the Job center advisor took some postcards to put up on their board in the office for service users to check out.

Im really looking forwards to making this in to a Community interest company, which will help with people wanting or not wanting to use or display information about the website.

Thanks Sutton Nightwatch for the introduction to SpearLondon.
