My journey of recovery
with reading & writing
Attending a reading group in Barnsley, student Diane shares her
time with the WEA and the importance of reading…
“For me the reading group has helped me to grow and develop as a person within
a friendly and safe environment. I have been encouraged to read out some of my
stories and poems which I have written myself, giving me a voice. The group have
been supportive towards me and I have received some positive feedback from
people which has allowed me to gain lots of confidence.
I feel like I have achieved a sense of wellbeing on my journey of recovery. I have a
thirst for knowledge and enjoy listening to stories that
inspire the imagination, tap into the creative mind, and leave you wanting to
explore the different characters. The types that allow you to seek the unknown,
escape from reality; be captivated while discovering a world of invention and spirit
of adventure.
I have found that being mentally ill doesn’t make you any less of a person; we are
just as important as anyone else, needing to be accepted for who we are”.
There is nothing you cannot
do if you put your mind to it,
if I can do it anyone can.

E. yhsouthwest@wea.org.ukRosemary really is ‘Changing Lives’ At the Changing Lives Women’s Centre in Doncaster, WEA tutor Rosemary is helping learners to improve their wellbeing through learning about beauty in her Top to Toe course and developing new communication techniques in her Confidence Building course. Rosemary has been a dedicated WEA tutor for over 12 years, frequently creating new courses to inspire her learners. All of her courses have underpinning themes of improving wellbeing and providing a safe space for women to learn new skills and meet new people. Student Lizzy has not only increased her own confidence and knowledge, she says that Rosemary’s class has had “a big psychological impact”. Inspired by Rosemary’s commitment to heightening wellbeing in others, Lizzy plans to share this impact with the wider community as she hopes to rent a room in a beauty salon to run a weekly session called Wellbeing Wednesdays. “I want to help people who feel down, and help them feel better about themselves”. For other learners, it wasn’t the beauty aspect of the course that first caught their eye, but the opportunity to improve their confidence and challenge themselves. Student Linda says “I’m usually stuck inside four walls.” Coming to Rosemary’s class “has helped me, it’s raised my confidence. It’s a small step, but it’s made a big difference”. Rosemary’s Confidence Building class aims to increase confidence in communicating in order to minimise isolation and promote integration. Carla has continued with the class since last year. Carla cares for her two young children with disabilities, as well as volunteering with homeless people. She says “Usually I don’t have any time for me, this gives me respite. I’m a bit more me”. I want to help people who feel down, and help them feel better about themselves Rosemary - tutor

Back from the brink In 2016, Richard’s life was turned upside down by a violent crime. He lost his home and his income. His mental health suffered. Then he found support from the Stonham Home Group, a support service and long- standing partner of the WEA in Rotherham. Richard is looking forward again. “After my ordeal, I found it hard to do new things or to meet new people. So when Stonham recommended I join a WEA drop-in group at a local library, I’ll be honest: I didn’t want to go. But I needed to get out, so I agreed. There was this lady there called Julie, who was the tutor. She was so kind and welcoming – always laughing and smiling. She reminded me a lot of the late, great Victoria Wood. As the course went on, I found myself opening up to Julie. My current course is called “On the Up!” and that’s how I feel. I am now more confident and I can talk about my problems more. I still have bad days and find things hard, but as soon as I see Julie and her big smiling face, things just seem to get better. I was then invited to the WEA York conference. That was a good day out. I learned a lot more about the WEA, and also found out they have volunteers and are always looking for more. One thing led to another, and I’m now a volunteer and member of the Rotherham Branch, which is amazing. I’m still alive because of the extraordinary people at Stonham. That’s a fact. And if it wasn’t for all Julie’s hard work, her laughter, her smiles – oh, and her amazing baking - I wouldn’t be as confident as I am today. I’m honoured to call you a true friend, Julie. Thank you”.
23 - 24 I want to help people who feel down, and help them feel better about themselves Richard - student and volunteer
