Research has shown that people who join in shared reading groups experience an improvement in their mental health, have improved levels of concentration, have a better emotional understanding and are better able to discuss meaningful issues about themselves.
If you are struggling,why not join us for a relaxing supportive session enjoying shared reading of stories specifically for you to connect with other pregnant women, to feel good and to live well. There will be good conversation and refreshments and we will also have a chance to read to your baby.

WEB's Sunshine Prescription and Soul Food Sessions
WEB’s Women’s Sunshine Prescription Service enables women from a variety of backgrounds to come along to the centre and experience a safe, non-judgemental space in which to come together with other women, have fun and learn new skills. Our Sunshine Prescriptions and 'Soul Food' projects mean all activities are designed to give people a boost to their confidence and overall emotional well-being. Activities can include anything from arts and crafts, to a trip out to the cinema, to aromatherapy massage. On alternative weeks, we run our mini-training sessions which allow the women to have a taste of some of the more in depth training we offer, such as learning about mindfulness, stress management, the importance of gratitude etc.
WEB now runs 3 weekly sunshine groups. Our “Wildflower” sessions on a Tuesday from 12-3pm. Our “Sunshine Sanctuary” every Thursday 12-3pm. Both groups open to all women 18+.
In partnership with 
and 
WEB are excited to offer a brand new sunshine session to support mums and female carers who have children with diverse needs. It will allow parents a time each week just for them, where they can relax, make new friends and develop new skills. Diversity Plus runs every Friday from 10am - 1pm.
At all of our groups you will get a lovely lunch provided free of charge!

Trauma and Bereavement Training*
Designed for both men and women who have experienced bereavement and loss through trauma related events. The exploration and healing process will take place through ‘experiential’ programme of support using a mixture of therapeutic arts, sand play, music, poetry, and meditation. This course focuses on the ‘healing of the trauma’ as opposed to ‘replaying the trauma’. WEB’s Bereavement & Trauma workshops is accessible to all who have suffered bereavement and loss by violence, crime, and suicide related deaths and losses. Also, individuals who may have been through the ‘trauma of being removed from their families and communities and who have been through the care system’ (we recognise some of those losses may also be through long term imprisonments). At WEB, we recognise that the impact of trauma is devastating and far reaching, affecting individuals, whole families, and often the wider community. This therapeutic and experiential workshop will work at the pace of each ‘individual’ as we realise each healing journey is unique to each individual. This healing workshop will be facilitated by experienced and qualified counsellors who are trained in ‘working creatively with trauma’.
