Happy Holidays from all of us at LIPS. We understand that this time of year can be a challenge for many of us, for many reasons. Mental health is important and we hope you are able to take the steps to seek help, if you need it.

As a reminder, our office will be closed from 24th Dec and will be opened again 5th Jan so we shall see you again in 2026. Thank you to everyone who has shown us support this year, we are grateful for every bit of it 💜

A big thank you to everyone who showed up and supported our craft class. Libby taught everyone how to make festive themed book books to display around their homes. This was our last craft class for the year but hopefully we shall be able to facilitate more in the near future.

Thank you to everyone who came along to the glass art class hosted at The Crafters on Main and led by Eleanor-Jane. Those in attendance were able to make tea light holders, free of charge. Our intention at LIPS was to help ease any mental or emotional health issues and to give adults a space to socialise by bringing people together to enjoy a creative outlet in a stress free environment. Please do not underestimate the importance of taking care of your mental health at any time.

This class was able to happen thanks to the Social Connections Fund from Causeway Coast and Glens Council.

“Fresh air is as good for the mind as for the body.” — John Lubbock.

Spending some time in nature, even for a simple walk, provides significant physical, mental and emotional benefits - helping to reduce stress and anxiety while improving mood and even concentration! So consider giving your brain a chance to rest and recharge 🍂🍁🍄
