This month at Pulling Together we have completed our A-Z of Mental Health and Wellbeing project. Thank you to GMVCO for funding the project. Using the embroidered squares as a starting point for conversations. Through this thoughts, aspirations and feelings were encouraged helping to reflect on the importance of health and wellbeing. Members of the group said that they felt that they had benefited from the project by knowing that it helps to talk, where to find out information and where to go if further help is needed. The double sided embroidered square panels will be stored in our Wellbeing Box along with leaflets and contact details of where to go for information and displayed during events at Limelight.

As a thank you to everyone who has taken part in the project, we have given them £20 in Boots vouchers to spend on their own health and well-being.

This month at Pulling Together we have begun to embroider our A-Z of Wellbeing squares.

Seeing the images that were chosen for each square being converted in a program for the sewing machine to read and design is always exciting and watching the machine design each square appear within thirty minutes.
