We had an incredible time visiting Halifax Circus for their Social Circus Circle program! 🎪

Our group from Laing House explored a range of circus skills - including juggling, aerials and acrobatics!

It was inspiring to see our members trying new things, supporting one another, and expressing themselves in such a welcoming and inclusive environment. Thank you to Halifax Circus for hosting such a meaningful experience! ✨

For Creative Arts Therapy Week, we’re celebrating the power of creativity to support mental health. 🎨

Creative arts therapy offers people a meaningful way to explore their thoughts and emotions through art, colours, and imagination - often fostering connection in a supportive environment with their peers.

We’re grateful for the ways creativity helps youth and young adults feel seen and empowered every day. Keep an eye out for the many creative programs offered at Laing House through our programs! 💙
