Active Minds

Picture
"Active minds has really helped me and my husband to get out and about. He looks forward to it every week and I get the chance to do a bit of shopping."
CORONAVIRUS UPDATE - UNFORTUNATLY DUE TO SOCIAL DISTANCING REGULATIONS SET BY THE GOVERNMENT AND FOR THE SAFETY OF BOTH OUR STAFF AND CLIENTS THE ACTIVE MINDS GROUP EACH WEDNESDAY 10AM - 12PM HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY CANCELLED UNTIL IT IS DEEMED SAFE TO RETURN. 

Active Minds is a group originally started as part of our Colour Your Life programme. The sessions are aimed at people living with dementia and each week they are engaged through a range of activities from music to film, from reminiscence to antiques. The group also provides some respite for full-time carers.

​Active Minds will continue to run every Wednesday 10am-12pm at Community House when it is safe to do so.

WHAT WE DO

We help the communities of the former district of Easington which is made up 20 distinct areas, most of which are former Pit villages that continue to be hugely affected by deprivation following the closure of the Pits.
​
We run a wide range of projects to help the community fight disadvantage including food parcels, telephone befriending for the socially isolated, helping people in the downward spiral of debt, supporting people to get the benefits they deserve, providing holiday activities with food, getting the disengaged engaged with the arts and more.
