Positive Thinking and Self Esteem

This is a free 6-week course starting on Wednesday 6th November at Penrith Rural Foyer. It aims to support people to develop a more positive mindset and to be more assertive in their day-to-day life. Pam, our tutor has successfully been teaching Health and Wellbeing for many years.

Story Sacks

This 5-week course starting on Tuesday 12th November at Penrith Library is for anyone who wants to make a Story Sack for a child. It can be for their own child, a grandchild, niece, nephew or a friend’s child. The idea is to make games, activities and toys related to their chosen children’s book, all of which will go into a bag to be given to the child. They make great Christmas presents as well! Jen, our tutor loves running this course, and finds that participants get a lot out of it.
