faq
What do I need to bring?
Anything crafty that you want to spend time on! It could be knitting, journaling, drawing, painting, cross-stitching, crocheting, zine-making, flower arranging, weaving, origami, baking, pottery, upcycling...anything at all!
How much does it cost to attend?
Our workshops are £10, or you can pay £5 using the code ‘joyful’. Pay whichever feels more accessible to you, no questions asked.
Is this group therapy?
No, this workshop is not a therapeutic space. If you require mental health support, please talk to a loved one and contact your doctor.
What will we do for the hour?
Craft and chat! If you like crafting solo then you can put us on mute and just have the company in the background. If you're feeling chatty then you can share what you're crafting, and we can chat about anything.
How many people will be there, and is it recorded?
Our workshops usually have around 5-10 people each time. We do not record them, as being recorded can feel uncomfortable for some people, and we want you to feel as comfortable as possible in the space.
Where can I join the call from, and do I need my camera on?
Anywhere in the world! All you need is a device to access the Zoom link. You are welcome to have your camera on or off at any point. I will always have mine on.
Come and look after your wellbeing with us.
