Am I Strong?

A beautiful, creative project for mums and daughters. The project will be gently and creatively led by creative facilitator Sharon Marsden.

There will be a small, intimate group of six mums and their daughters, aimed at strengthening bonds between Mother and Daughter.

AM I STRONG focuses on building confidence, resilience and strength, in this most precious of relationships, helping you get to know one another in a new way. And there is no pressure in the sessions, the process is one of positivity, creativity and self-awareness.

“I saw my mum doing things she doesn’t normally do. I only ever saw her doing mum things, that was what I was most excited about!” Hamna

“For both of us, we saw each other in a new light. Our confidence grew, together.” Malgorzata

When: Every Saturday – 17th June – 22nd July – 11 till 1pm
Age recommendation 14+ for daughters
