I am delighted to share that Mindful Photography UK has been awarded funding from The National Lottery Community Fund to deliver another Women in York project over the next two years.
This project will support around 100 women across York and North Yorkshire through a programme of therapeutic photography workshops focused on:
Building confidence
Improving wellbeing
Creating meaningful
Supporting recovery and resilience
The project builds on our previous work with women who have experienced significant life challenges, including domestic abuse, neurodiversity, caring responsibilities and involvement with the justice system.
Alongside 18 workshops, we will create a legacy film and a major workplace based event at Allerton Castle to celebrate participants' voices, challenge stigma and showcase the power of creativity, connection and community.
Thank you to everyone who supported our pilot project, shared their experiences, referred participants and believed in the work.
This is just the beginning.
