A Kintsugi Hope Wellbeing Group is a small, facilitated peer support group that provides a safe and supportive environment for individuals to share their struggles and develop tools to enhance their mental and emotional wellbeing. Inspired by the Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold, these groups focus on helping participants accept themselves, understand their value, and build resilience to navigate life's challenges
Our next group will start on Thursday 23/04/2026, 7 - 9pm, and run for 6 weeks. It is held in The Low Port Centre in Meeting Room 2, and each session is 2 hours.
