Activity Groups

Arts and Crafts Exhibition

In collaboration with Michelle Navarro, members produced a series of paintings and craftwork based upon black people and cultures that they aspire to. The exhibition was a great success and the feedback from the event was very empowering for them. Due to the demand to purchase pieces of the artwork it was decided that we would auction the artwork at our AGM. All members from both both Groups helped with the event and they were very excited and proud at what they had achieved. Both events had a great impact on not only our members' lives, but mine as well.

Aromatherapy & Massage

Mary Seacole House offers Massage and Aromatherapy as part of its Holistic approach to good mental health.

Aromatherapy is the use of 'essential oils', plant essence, to aid the healing process. The oils work effectively not only on the physical but also on the emotional, intellectual and spiritual well being.

Combined with massage, it is a deeply soothing and relaxing experience that should not be missed.

Auricular Acupuncture

5 point Ear Acupuncture

This is a treatment everyone can have, it has a calming, balancing effect on the body. It helps with sleep, appetite and general well being.

Pool Team

The Pool team have played some Great games this year and we have travelled all over the City playing various teams at other day centres as well as hosting home games.

Unfortunately the team were not as successful this year as they have been in the past, but we have to let others win every now and again.
