Creative Steps
The Creative Steps programme fuses arts-based classes and peer-support. Working with health care providers across the south of Glasgow, the programme improves members’ mental health, strengthening their social connections.
Over the programme’s three stages, group members report feeling more resilient, better connected to and able to be part of their community, thereby allowing people to be less reliant on services.
Step 1: Arts classes in health care settings
Attending a peer-support group for the first time is daunting. Running out of health care settings, spaces that feel safe and familiar, Step 1 uses physical art activities to ease someone’s journey.
Step 2: Art groups on Govan Road
Run from our base on Govan Road, these weekly arts and craft groups allow members to access ongoing support in their community.
Step 3: Specialist classes and events
Empowered by arts participation and social engagement, Step 3 gives members the opportunity to give back to their community and to take part in further creative classes.
