This months Art Therapy session will be: CROWN OF UNIQUENESS

Draw, paint, sculpt or create a collage of your very own crown.

What are your qualities represented by the crown?

The crown becomes a symbolic representation of our unique strengths and self-worth.

Materials: choose the way you will make your crown, all need paper and pencil for notes:

For Drawing: pencils and paper

For painting: paper, paint, brushes, water

For sculpting: I suggest air dry clay or papier Mache

For collage: paper, glue, magazine or newspaper images, or similar, stickers

A diagnosis of breast cancer can bring many challenges and we are here to help you through this journey. If you are in your 50s or below this support group is for you.

In this group you will have an opportunity to meet others who are travelling a similar life path and to share your experiences. This group offers women a chance to connect with others, learn coping strategies and gather information. We discuss how we can best support you through this journey.  The sessions are a safe space to share, learn and help each other get through this hurdle. The sessions are run by our Breast Care Nurse Consultant Jamie Kelly and we are often joined by a guest speaker to offer their expertise on a particular breast cancer topic or health related topic.
