Women's exercise group
A huge well done to Nu for delivering our weekly women's chair-based exercise sessions, which have gone from strength to strength. The group has grown steadily, with more women joining each week to improve their physical health, wellbeing, confidence, and social connections in a welcoming and supportive environment.
The popularity of the sessions means we are now looking at moving to a larger room to accommodate everyone who wants to attend – a fantastic achievement and a reflection of the positive impact the group is having within our community.
Thank you to every woman who attends each week, encourages one another, and helps create such a friendly and inclusive atmosphere. Your commitment and enthusiasm make these sessions so special.
Together we are building stronger, healthier communities, one step, stretch, and smile at a time.

Men's group
Men's groups have been busy in both the classroom , attending events out doors to improve mental health and wellbeing and improving their conversational English
Sometimes supporting mental health is about creating space… space to breathe, share experiences, build friendships, and feel part of something bigger.
Moments like these help reduce isolation, build confidence, and remind us that wellbeing grows through connection, community, and belonging.
Community lunch and community group
Join the Community Lunch and activity groups each Friday at St Philemon's where the community can get together talk about health and wellbeing, participate in some light chair based exercise, art and crafts and talk to others in your own language, reduce social isolation in a warm friendly hub - big thanks to feeding Liverpool and Neighbourly for assisting in food provision

Understanding Mental Health and coping skills
Umama delivered a talk on mental trauma discussing what it truly means, how it can affect individuals, and the importance of recognising its signs early. We explored healthy coping strategies, the power of community support, and how empathy and open conversations can help in the healing process.
It was truly meaningful to engage with people, raise awareness, and remind everyone that mental wellbeing matters just as much as physical health..
