Crafting for well being
There are therapeutic benefits from crafting, including reducing stress &amp; anxiety.  When done socially the benefits are amplified.  Sharing stories and knowledge, supporting each other and celebrating achievements, boosts confidence and self esteem, and creates a better sense of well being. There really is something special about creating alongside other people.  When people come together to create, magic happens.  Connections are made, and passions, interests and values are shared.  A space is created where people can learn, be inspired, and gain fresh perspectives, from their work, and the world around them.  They are also spaces we can unwind and recharge!
