We’re sharing an opportunity for a new community arts and health project launching this summer called The Mending Room ✨

This free project to support young people aged 11–19 parents and carers across Lambeth will be based at Raw Materials community hub in Brixton. It aims to improve and reimagine children and young people's mental health and wellbeing.

☀️ Summer is on the way, and we’ve got a fantastic line-up of holiday camps and creative one-day workshops at UNLH, running throughout the school holidays from 20 July to 21 August!

Get creative with science-inspired art experiments, painting, pottery, tie-dye, accessory design, cake decorating, board game creation, and more. We’ll also be running STEM activities and tutor-led chess sessions for young minds who love to learn and explore 🎨 ♟️ 🌈

Whether your child enjoys getting messy with clay, experimenting with colour, baking, crafting, designing, or gaming, there’s something for everyone this summer!

✨ ADHD Mums Connect is at the Upper Norwood Library Hub next Tuesday 2 June at 7:15pm - a monthly meet-up for mums with ADHD and AuDHD (formal diagnosis not necessary) to come together, connect, and unmask in a supportive, non-judgemental space.

This group offers a chance to talk openly about the realities of parenting while living with neurodivergence, share experiences, and support one another – whether that’s swapping resources, offering reassurance, or simply feeling a bit more seen. Many attendees are still on their diagnostic journey, and all are welcome wherever you are on that path.

Babes in arms are welcome, and there’s a relaxed, friendly atmosphere with space to just show up as you are. It’s also a great opportunity to meet others who truly understand the day-to-day challenges and strengths of neurodivergent parenting.
