# Event Details - **Event Name**: Furniture Upcycling and Painting for Neurodivergent Adults - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 11 Apr, 2026 at 11:30 am – Sat, 11 Apr, 2026 at 02:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Reet Good Wood is a creative upcycling project specifically for late diagnosed Neurodivergent adults, or those waiting for a diagnosis.About this EventReet Good Wood is a creative space specifically for Neurodivergent adults who have had a late diagnosis, are waiting for a diagnosis or are not seeking one but identify as being neurodivergent. For people who have 'managed' to get through life without any kind of peer support - this space is for you. Unfortunately we do not meet criteria for formal support but being around other people like you can be massively beneficial.Ruth, who runs Reet Good Wood, offers this 'have a go' workshop at her studio on Floor 5 of Spinners Mill in LeighRuth says..."Being Neurodivergent has many challenges. It can be quite isolating at times and some people often feel misunderstood, like they don’t ’fit in’ and can struggle to thrive in a world suited to neurotypical people. I found my calm in the chaos that goes on in my brain as a neurodivergent adult by Upcycling wooden furniture. It gave me an outlet and massively improved my mental health and emotional wellbeing. So, I thought, why not share it with other Neurodivergent adults!? There is very little peer support out there when you're waiting for a diagnosis and very little afterwards, and although some people might not need it, for others being around other neurodivergent people can help massively. It can give a sense of belonging, provide a safe space to be your authentic self, in a space where you don’t have to worry about being judged or mistreated."In this session you get to have a go at an activity we feel is really beneficial to our health. We have furniture, paints, and space to share. We're asking for a £15 ticket contribution to cover some of the operational costs incurred.This workshop is for adults of any gender identity, who consider themselves to be neurodivergent. You do need to be able to work independently as you will be expected to be able to work unsupervised (this is not 1-1 tuition), to keep yourself safe and to be able to do your own furniture prep and painting.Group size is limited to 6 places. Demand for these sessions is quite high so if you cannot make it please cancel your booking in advance to allow other people to book. It also means we can plan and prepare for the right amount of attendees. If you want a video or any more information about the workshop space, or want to visit first - that can be arranged. Drinks, biscuits and great company all included.These sessions are located in a workshop environment so please wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty / paint on. Please arrive on time to start at 11:30am.NB. It is not expected that you will finish a piece of furniture in the 3 hour session time. The session is to learn the essentials of Upcycling in a Neurodivergent environment. it is not therapy, counselling or 1-1 tuition. But a group of likeminded people sharing a creative space to have a go at furniture Upcycling. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/902284e0-f4d8-11f0-939d-8d7f4fe5e3ad-rimg-w987-h740-dcc0c1be-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/904e01b0-f4d8-11f0-939d-8d7f4fe5e3ad-rimg-w555-h740-dc45332e-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/9079a590-f4d8-11f0-b1e4-475f0e34b788-rimg-w555-h740-dcd8c5a2-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/909e6ba0-f4d8-11f0-b1e4-475f0e34b788-rimg-w675-h740-dcd8d6d4-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/90ce7c50-f4d8-11f0-b1e4-475f0e34b788-rimg-w555-h740-dc594b5a-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/910e1d60-f4d8-11f0-939d-8d7f4fe5e3ad-rimg-w674-h740-dc48492f-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/91379e60-f4d8-11f0-b1e4-475f0e34b788-rimg-w535-h740-dc2f92a4-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/915cb290-f4d8-11f0-a0d9-23f031643b6b-rimg-w453-h740-dcdbdada-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/9186f6e0-f4d8-11f0-b1e4-475f0e34b788-rimg-w731-h740-dc475b65-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/91a97300-f4d8-11f0-b1e4-475f0e34b788-rimg-w592-h740-dcc6c2bc-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/leigh/furniture-upcycling-and-painting-for-neurodivergent-adults/100001743622173859 - **Event Categories**: workshops, art, fine-arts, health-wellness, mental-health - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 15, max: 15, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Leigh - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Leigh Spinners Mill - **lat**: 53.4931171 - **long**: -2.492949499999999 - **full address**: Leigh Spinners Mill, Park Lane, Leigh, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Furniture Upcycling and Painting for Neurodivergent Adults - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/1855f2d3cc8e36563071c4dce2b6b754bbc690f8b8ab3c332e85977e08198da3-rimg-w640-h480-dc191316-gmir.jpg?v=1768787163 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Furniture Upcycling and Painting for Neurodivergent Adults being held? - **A:** Furniture Upcycling and Painting for Neurodivergent Adults takes place on Sat, 11 Apr, 2026 at 11:30 am to Sat, 11 Apr, 2026 at 02:30 pm at Leigh Spinners Mill, Park Lane, Leigh, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Furniture Upcycling and Painting for Neurodivergent Adults? - **A:** Tickets for Furniture Upcycling and Painting for Neurodivergent Adults are priced at GBP 15 per person.
