WILLOW WEAVING WORKSHOP
Generously funded by the Surrey Hills Society
🌳🌿🍃 Armed with bundles of willow — some soaked and pliable, others dry and dyed in rich colours — our facilitator Lorraine guided us step by step in weaving our very own dragonflies.
🐉🦋 The process was mindful and absorbing, every twist and turn demanding focus, yet leaving space for creativity to shine.
By the end, the room was alive with a flutter of unique willow dragonflies — each one different, each one brilliant.
A session full of colour, craft, and that spark of learning something new.

💬 Starting a conversation matters.
If you’re worried about someone, ask gently how they’re feeling. You don’t need all the answers — just listening can make a difference. Find out more on our Recovery Blog: https://rfcommunityconnections.org.uk/recovery-blog/

On Sunday, 7 September at 3 pm, there will be a national emergency phone alert test.
This test is aimed at helping us, but it could mean danger for people experiencing domestic abuse and confusion for other people.
We are sharing guidance for people experiencing domestic abuse or who may find the alert confusing.
Please watch and share these short videos from Refuge showing how to turn off alerts on a hidden phone. It takes just a minute - but it could save someone’s life.
Please note that the video sound will come on as soon as you click the link. Each video lasts one minute and 30 seconds.
Turn off the alerts on your iPhone.

Turn off the alerts on your Android phone.

Other helpful guidance:
The government will continue ongoing engagement with disability charities and campaigners in the run-up to the test.
These guides may help:

Leeds Autism AIM Health Access Project, has produced some useful information for autistic people, with easy-read downloadable guides.
Government’s Emergency Alert testing: Useful information for autistic people - Leeds Autism AIM

Mencap has produced a downloadable easy-read guide.
Emergency alert test from the government | Mencap | Easy Read

For deaf, hard-of-hearing, blind or partially sighted people: during the test, audio and vibration attention signals will let you know you have received an alert if accessibility notifications have been enabled on your mobile phone or tablet.

RNID has produced a guide for people who are deaf, have hearing loss, or are experiencing tinnitus.
A national test of the government's Emergency Alerts system - RNID

The government has produced this 20-second audio explainer, which includes what the alert will sound like and more information. Learn more on the Gov.UK website.
