As
you may have seen in our previous post; LEAPS received funding from the BigLottery Fund for our project: ‘LEAPS Wellness Weeks.’
“It
was a beautiful day and very exciting because it’s the first time in a long
time that I’ve been away”
- Group Member
One
of our plans in using this money was to take our members on a Therapeutic Trip
to Edinburgh for the day. We’ve found that on previous trips (Carlisle and
Berwick), members have thoroughly enjoyed themselves with being away from the
usual stresses they face from the stigma of being unemployed. A lot of our
members are unemployed due to mental health difficulties and so they’re often
also battling the stigma of mental health that’s so ripe and debilitating these
days.
“It
was a lovely, enjoyable day. A good chance to be sociable”
- Committee Member
“I
found the day fun and enlightening – especially the Art Gallery. And Edinburgh
has such amazing scenery!”
- Group Member
Another
thing that some of our members struggle with, is anxiety. A lot of this stems
from housing issues, applications for state benefits, and general mental health
difficulties. This means that physically being somewhere else is a bit of a (in
my opinion) well-deserved break from the reality that is being unwaged.
“I
enjoyed two shows at the Fringe”
- Group Member
The
hour-and-a-bit-long journey on the train was a great opportunity to have some
nice, informal chats; something we often don’t get the chance to do at weekly
meetings.
When
we arrived in Edinburgh a few of us had something different that we wanted to
see/do and luckily the Fringe shows were still on so a lot of us had a little
mosey around there. I also met the Edinburgh City Center Police (and talked
about the RESPOND training with Claire Andre and Inspector Steve Baker), explored Edinburgh Castle, briefly visited the Art Gallery, had food at a lovely Italian restaurant (where I had the most delicious seafood Pizza!) and even found the time to pay
a visit to a couple of the shops (namely T K Maxx and Oliver Bonas)!
“It
was a great chance to spend time with the group members”
- Committee Member
And of course we'd like to say a huge thank you to the Big Lottery Fund for their
generous funding that has afforded us the opportunity to have this therapeutic trip!
Hoots man!,it was great day,so glad the group got to visit Edinburgh during the Fringe.
