THE SELF DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
​
We are blessed to have an incredible psychologist on our team who leads self-development workshops throughout the year. These sessions are designed for both teens and adults, creating a safe and supportive environment where individuals can reflect, grow, and build resilience.
A key focus of the workshops is self-compassion- learning how to be kinder to ourselves and approach life’s challenges with patience and understanding. Participants are also given the opportunity to explore important topics around mental health and wellbeing, equipping them with tools to care for their minds and emotions.
Through open discussion, guided exercises, and practical strategies, our aim is to empower people to develop greater self-awareness, confidence, and inner strength, so they can flourish in their everyday lives.
THE FAITH PROJECT
​
​
Faith helps people by giving them hope and strength during difficult times. It provides comfort, a sense of purpose, and a belief that things can get better. Faith can also bring people together, creating a supportive community where they feel understood and cared for. We organise 2 pilgrimages each year - one for adults, and one for teenagers. We also bring teens to retreats at various times throughout the year. We also have a monthly prayer group.
THE COMMUNITY PROJECT
​
​
One thing we take pride in, is our sense of community spirit and community engagement. We make sure to show up for local events, and support the local organisations in the area. We believe that building strong connections within the community creates a positive and lasting impact. By working together, we can provide opportunities, share resources, and uplift those who need it most. Our goal is to inspire unity, celebrate diversity, and create a welcoming space where everyone feels valued. Through small acts of kindness and ongoing collaboration, we hope to strengthen the bonds that bring our community closer.
OUR PROJECTS
THE MUSIC PROJECT
​
​
We believe that music is a form of therapy- one that speaks to the soul, heals the heart, and connects people in a truly unique way. Music has the power to unite communities, celebrate culture, and bring joy to everyday life.
Through The Music Project, we run a variety of programmes for all ages, including a Children’s Choir, a Youth Choir, a Youth Ballad Group, and an Adult Ballad Group, each meeting weekly to grow in confidence and creativity. Alongside our choirs, we also offer music lessons and workshops, designed to help individuals discover and develop their musical talents in a supportive environment.
Our groups perform at a wide range of local events, using music to uplift, inspire, and bring people together. By sharing the gift of song, we hope to spread joy, strengthen community bonds, and remind everyone of the healing power of music.
THE CREATIVE WRITING PROJECT​
​
Expressing ourselves is key to both growth and healing. Through writing, we find new ways to process our thoughts, share our stories, and connect with others. That’s why we created The Creative Writing Project - a space where voices of all ages can be heard.
We run a Teens Poetry Club, where a group of young writers collaborate to create a published poetry book, giving them the opportunity to see their words come to life and share them with the wider community. In addition, we host both a Youth Journaling Circle and an Adults Journaling Circle, offering a safe and supportive environment for people to explore their feelings, reflect on experiences, and express themselves freely on paper.
Our goal is to empower individuals to embrace the power of words, discover their creativity, and use writing as a tool for self-discovery and healing.
THE VOLUNTEERING PROJECT
There is so much joy found in helping others. We believe that when people give their time and talents, they not only make a difference in the lives of others but also grow within themselves. That is why we created our “Be The Light” Volunteering Programme, designed especially for teens.
Over the course of 12 weeks, participants take part in 12 leadership lessons and 12 unique volunteering opportunities that allow them to develop valuable life skills while serving their community. From teamwork and empathy to responsibility and initiative, each experience helps them grow into confident young leaders.
At the end of the programme, every teen presents a project highlighting their journey and the impact of their volunteer work during a special graduation celebration. This moment not only recognises their achievements but also inspires them to continue carrying the light of service into the future.
