Friday Morning Wellbeing Sessions
These sessions take place in The Place to Pause & Breathe in Bonnybridge. Click here for more information about the venue.
We have previously obtained funding to run FREE dessions on Friday mornings. This has been a mix of different activities, all designed to help improve wellbeing - physically, mentally, emotionally - or sometimes all three!
Although our funding ran out at the end of October, some of our community members are volunteering their time to continue to hold sessions. These are now donation-based, as we don’t have funding to cover our costs. See below for what’s coming up.
