The Hamdon Wellbeing Hub Project

Welcome to the Hamdon Wellbeing Hub, an exciting new project based at Hamdon Youth and Family Centre in Stoke-sub-Hamdon. This initiative aims to transform the rear hall of the centre into a welcoming and calming space focused on wellness and mindfulness for children and hopefully families, and the wider community too.

What is the Hamdon Wellbeing Hub?

The Hamdon Wellbeing Hub project hopes to create a dedicated space where children and families can come together to relax, unwind, and focus on their mental health and emotional wellbeing. We plan to offer a variety of activities, including mindfulness workshops, relaxation sessions, and wellness programs tailored to different ages and needs. Our aim is to provide a nurturing environment that supports the wellbeing of our community, helping everyone find a moment of calm amidst the chaos of daily life.

Our Vision for the Hamdon Wellbeing Hub

We envision the Hamdon Wellbeing Hub becoming a central part of our community’s wellbeing. Our goal is to transform the current hall—currently in poor condition—into a warm, inviting space that offers peace and support. We hope to design the hub with soft, calming colours and natural elements, creating a soothing atmosphere for those who visit.

To keep the space flexible and multifunctional, we plan to introduce moveable storage units, so the hall can continue to serve other community activities as needed.

What We Hope to Bring to the Hub

We have some exciting ideas for the Hamdon Wellbeing Hub and the programs we hope to introduce:

  • Mindfulness and Relaxation Workshops: These sessions will help children develop mindfulness skills, providing them with tools for self-care, stress relief, and body awareness.
  • Family Wellness Days: We hope to host special events where families can bond through shared wellness activities, such as yoga, meditation, and creative relaxation techniques.
  • Parenting Workshops: Pending legal considerations, we plan to expand the hub’s offerings to include parenting workshops, supporting parents in managing their own wellbeing while fostering healthy family dynamics.
  • Sensory Activities: Our project hopes to introduce sensory-focused programs that will be particularly beneficial for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), giving them a safe and engaging environment to explore.

We’re excited about the potential of the Hamdon Wellbeing Hub and how it can serve the Stoke-sub-Hamdon community. While the project is in its early stages, we believe that with support and dedication, the hub will become a place where families and individuals can come to refresh, recharge, and reconnect.

Stay tuned for more updates on our progress, future fundraising events, and the eventual launch of this much-needed community space!
