What a factastic day at the @co_financing Warrington @IntervAlliance Activity hub celebrating International Women's Day.
We made self-care bags for #women in the local centre and had lots of discussions around #positive role models in our lives.

A team effort to get some art up on our walls at the @co_financing Warrington @IntervAlliance Activity hub. It is looking rather lovely and welcoming at the hub with some new art work being displayed.

Model making is becoming popular at our #Warrington @co_financing @IntervAlliance Activity hub. Participants enjoy the #escapism of getting #creative, or following instruction metulously. It allows them to get out of their busy minds & into their body & relax.

Participants at our @co_financing @IntervAlliance Activity hub noticed the front of house needed a bit of TLC. So, during our #upcycling sessions we prepped the metal, wood & concrete for painting. It's fair to say they did a smashing job.

What an incredible opportunity to represent the @IntervAlliance @co_financing Activity Hubs at the @KoestlerArts seminar! It was fabulous to see our Manchester Hub's art at the exhibit & so many other talented #artists in the #criminaljustice system.

We’ve teamed up with other drug and alcohol services to share a number of important messages ahead of #OverdoseAwarenessDay.

Our fifth message is to raise awareness of some of the things you can do to help someone who’s overdosed.
