I have been attending Art4Space for three and a half years now. I first joined to attend a 1-year Women’s Equip course which resulted in being part of the group making the mosaic at the entrance which greets people as they walk towards the studio entrance. By doing this it gave me confidence again, and whilst being part of this I joined Creative Surgery as a volunteer and have been doing so since 2020.
The staff are so supportive and I have learned so much since being here. I love the whole relaxing vibe and calmness the studio brings. The garden is a wonderful place to chill and get my thoughts together. I enjoy working together and bonding with other volunteers where we support each other. I also now volunteer on Thursdays with the Peer Support sessions. I’m sure, in fact I know; that I will be sticking around at Art4Space for a long time.
