"Colours of Life" aims to reach out to those in the community who would like to use art to express emotions relating to their grief. "Colours of Life" workshops are creative, art focused and provide people the opportunity to share, in a relaxed space, life experiences of grief, loss, memories of a life lived and hopes into the future. This group also has a closed weekly peer support group for those who want to stay connected.
Southern Vale Compassionate Communities, connects with our community in order to understands what is needed, when living with a life limiting illness, caring for others and grieving. Wherever possible, small projects are carried out to support the communities.
