🌱 Wightoak Wisdom of the Week 🌱

As we head into a new year, here’s a reminder we wanted to share:

“Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 365-page book. Write a good one.”

A new year doesn’t mean everything has to change overnight. It’s about small choices, fresh chances, and taking things one step at a time.

🌼 You’ll find this quote written on seed paper, placed around the Isle of Wight.

📸 If you find one, take a photo, tag us , and then plant it to grow wildflowers - a reminder that new beginnings take time to grow.

Here’s to writing your next chapter, your way. 💚

Sometimes we’re blown away by our young people’s skills.
Bread from scratch? No problem 🍞

Seeing their confidence and independence grow is always a good feeling ❤️

It’s that Crimbo Limbo week 🎄

Christmas is over, the New Year isn’t here yet, and things are a bit quieter.

At Wightoak Youth Services, we’re using this time to slow down, recharge, and think about what we want to focus on in 2026.

And to our young people - what do you want from 2026?

More support, new goals, fresh opportunities - tell us what matters to you. We are listening.

Sometimes it’s good to pause before things kick off again.

✨ Christmas Eve at Wightoak Youth ✨

Christmas Eve can feel quiet, strange, hopeful, or heavy - sometimes all at once. If tonight brings up feelings for you, that’s okay. There’s no right way to feel.

As the day winds down, we just want you to know this: you matter, and you’re not alone. You’re held in mind and in heart by people who care about you.

Whether tonight is peaceful or restless, full or empty, we hope you can find even a small moment of comfort. A deep breath. A bit of warmth. A reminder that you belong.

Christmas is about love and community - and that includes you, exactly as you are.

🌙💛 From all of us at Wightoak Youth, we’re thinking of you this Christmas Eve...

🎄🚨 ELF INFESTATION ALERT at Wightoak Youth! 🚨🎄

We’ve officially been taken over… by elves 😳🧝‍♂️
They’ve been spotted causing chaos, pulling pranks, and getting up to all sorts of crazy things around our homes 👀

From unexpected surprises to “how did they even get up there?!” moments - it’s safe to say the elves have made themselves very comfortable here at Wightoak Youth 🤣

Staff are baffled. Young people are suspicious.
The elves? Absolutely thriving. 😏✨

Stay tuned… who knows what they’ll get up to next 👀🎅

Getting into the Christmas spirit this week 🎄❄️☃️

Some of our young people spent time crafting snowmen - getting creative, chatting, and just enjoying a chilled moment together. It’s was great to see them trying something new, and taking a break from the usual routine ❤️

Sometimes it’s the simple stuff that makes the biggest difference. ❄️☃️

🌱 Wightoak Wisdom of the Week 🌱

Throughout December, our focus is on Community - the people, places, and connections that support us and help us grow. 💚

This week’s quote reminds us just how powerful community can be:

“Alone we can do so little; together, we can do so much.” – Helen Keller

Community is about showing up for one another, sharing kindness, and giving back where we can. Whether it’s offering support, time, encouragement, or simply being present, small acts can make a big difference when we work together. 🌟

At Wightoak, we’re proud to be part of a community that cares - and to support young people who continue to give back in their own ways every day.

🌼 You’ll find this quote written on seed paper, placed around the Isle of Wight.

📸 If you find one, snap a photo, tag us , and then plant it to grow wildflowers - a reminder that when we nurture our community, we all flourish. 🌱

Let’s keep growing together. 💚

🎄 It might be Christmas, but we’re still making sure our team have the skills they need to keep our Young People safe.

Our staff have been refreshing their first aid and CPR training so they’re confident and prepared for any emergency that may arise while supporting young people. ❤️💪

A huge thank you to for delivering excellent training once again!

✨🎄 Christmas at Wightoak Youth is whatever YOU want it to be! 🎄✨

We want our Young People to know that there’s no “right” way to do Christmas - just your way. 💫

Whether you love getting involved in local activities, baking festive goodies, listening to Christmas classics, exploring craft fairs, or simply staying cosy at home… it’s all valid. ❤️

Try something new, stick with what you know, celebrate big, keep it quiet, spend time with others, or enjoy your own space - you get to choose.

This season is about you feeling comfortable, supported, and free to make Christmas what you want it to be.

🧪✨ Science experiment or slime party?

Why not both! Recently at Wightoak Youth, we spent the evening getting hands-on with some gooey, squishy, colourful slime with our amazing Young People. It was looking like a proper science lab around here! 😄💚

Nothing beats the laughter, creativity, and a little mess when we come together to make, mix, and stretch our way through the evening. Big slime vibes only! 🙌

🎄 Merry December from Wightoak Youth! 🎄

Every year we celebrate the start of the festive season with our tradition of buying a new charity bauble for our trees.

This year, we’re proud to support the RNLI, who do incredible work all year round - especially important to us here on the Isle of Wight. 🌊🚤✨

A huge thank you to the RNLI for everything they do to keep our communities safe.

Here’s to a month filled with kindness, togetherness, and festive cheer! 💙🎁

🌱 Keywork Session Update: Budgeting & Batch Cooking 🍲💷

This week, one of our Young People took part in a keywork session focused on budgeting and batch cooking, and they did amazingly well! 🙌

💡 They explored how planning meals and tracking spending can make money stretch further and reduce day-to-day stress.

🍛 They also got hands-on with a simple, budget-friendly batch cooking activity, learning how one recipe can create several portions for the week!

A brilliant step forward! 💪
