Wellbeing

Now more than ever, connecting with others is so important for us all, which is why we are excited to tell you we have been creating ways to continue to support you and the St Christopher’s community at this difficult time.

We have put together a timetable of activities, from art and music sessions to quizzes and exercise classes as well as time to share experiences and chat to others. Whatever you need to help you through this time, we hope there is something for you. For further information email wellbeingonline@stchristophers.org.uk

All our online sessions are free to join. If you are able to, please consider a small donation to our emergency appeal.
