Phoenix Families CIC

🌱 We’re looking for a little extra help! 🌱

Phoenix Families CIC supports the mental health and wellbeing of parents and carers with babies and young children—and we’ve got lots of exciting ideas we’d love to develop.

As a small team, we’re looking for a freelance development worker to join us for a few hours a week and help bring these ideas to life.

This could include:
💛 Planning future projects
💛 Organising events
💛 Helping with social media
💛 Supporting grant applications

It’s a flexible role and a great opportunity to make a real difference in our community.

📩 If you’re interested (or know someone who might be), get in touch for an informal chat:
hello@phoenix-wellbeing.net

Please share to help us find the right person 🙏

Looking forward to seeing you on Friday … remember our sessions have now extended, running 10.00-11.30am and are still offered completely free of charge. 💜

Phoenix Families CIC was set up in 2021 to support parents and carers who had gone through pregnancy and birth during lockdown.

Since then we have run groups in numerous different places, but 4 years ago we established a relationship with Hull Museums who provided us with their beautiful green space to run sessions.

Since then we have continued to work together in partnership to make sure these sessions remain available to support parents and carers.

We are therefore delighted to share that we have been shortlisted for Partnership of the Year by the HEY Charity Awards – we are absolutely over the moon!

This nomination recognises the power of community, collaboration, and the incredible parents and carers who share their journeys with us . It celebrates the safe, welcoming spaces we’ve built together, and the difference that strong partnerships can make in supporting families when they need it most.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of our journey 💜

And here it is …. The sun hid from us this morning but we added our own sunshine ! Lovely to see everyone. Same time next week 🌳💜

Inspired by the sunshine, today’s colour is yellow!
Who’s coming along to add their mark to the tree?

Our collaborative painting is an activity we’ve absolutely loved over the past couple of years, and we now have a whole gallery’s worth of canvases that I’d love to display somewhere special.

So, what is collaborative art?
It’s a shared piece of artwork that everyone can be part of. It doesn’t matter how much or how little you add — it’s about having the chance to make your mark and be included.

Each week at Together in Nature, we return to the same canvas and add just one colour, using no brushes. Instead, we encourage everyone to discover natural tools outdoors — feathers, stones, leaves, and anything else we can find. It’s a lovely way to invite mindfulness, curiosity, and a sense of wonder, not only about nature itself but also about the different marks and textures we can create.

It’s such a simple yet powerful activity, and we’d love for you to come and be part of it.

Today’s group is at 10.00-11.00 …. And we have exciting news coming !!
