WELLIES Family Activity Days
Wednesday 20th August & Wednesday 27th August 2025.
10:00am – 3:00pm
Chapel on the Hill, Somersall Herbert. DE6 5PE

These fun, creative activity days are designed to support children’s wellbeing, confidence, and connection with others—through hands-on experiences like gardening, cooking, nature-based crafts, and outdoor activities.

Importantly, this is a Family Day, and we warmly invite parents and carers to stay and take part alongside their children. We’ve found that shared experiences like these can create wonderful memories and help strengthen bonds at home too. For familys with children age 7-11 who would benefit form well-being activities.

What is WELLIES?

WELLIES = Wellness, Education, Learning, Laughter, Inspiration, Environment, Skills.

WELLIES runs therapeutic courses with animals, plants, creativity and the countryside for adults recovering from poor mental health. The WELLIES Project is in its 11th year with Nick Platt and Julie White, who founded this Community Interest Company in 2009. Initially utilising farms and small holdings in Staffordshire, the courses are now run from 2 premises in and near Sudbury, on the South Derbyshire/East Staffordshire border.
