The Full Story
Hello,
My name is Willow, and I am the co-founder of this remarkable project. My journey into volunteering began at the age of 15, when I first engaged with a community project. Over the past 18 years, I've had the privilege of working alongside some of the most incredible individuals and communities across our nation. My mission has always been to reach the most in need and vulnerable people in our communities, working to uplift and empower people, supporting their mental health and igniting creative strategies to inspire, encourage, and support.
Journalling has been a cornerstone of my own well-being practice. It's a way for me to transfer thoughts onto paper, fostering growth, healing, gratitude, and joy. Together with my team of incredible facilitators, we conduct creative journalling online workshops. These workshops are designed to unlock the vast potential within journalling for everyone, offering a private and boundless space for self-expression.
Our live sessions aim to connect individuals with their inner strength and thoughts, aiding them on their journalling journey. With years of experience in both charitable and corporate sectors, our sessions are crafted to inspire, support, and transform lives.
In the last three years, our dedicated team of facilitators and educators has expanded this project to reach those most in need. Thanks to funding from organisations like The Arts Council and the Big Lottery Community Fund, we've been able to extend our impact, continuously researching and connecting with individuals seeking solace and support from their circumstances.
Journalling prompts have become an essential part of our work, acting as gateways to healing and potential. These prompts are more than just suggestions; they are moments for individuals to dream, express, grow, and heal.
We are deeply passionate about our mission. We believe that everyone has the potential to become the person they aspire to be, to recover, and to discover joy. This project is about spreading positivity and possibility, about supporting and changing lives one prompt, one session, one suggestion, and one affirmation at a time.
In a world often filled with conflict and crisis, it can sometimes feel overwhelming. However, I firmly believe that each of us possesses the strength, power, and potential to overcome challenges, find love and possibility, and tap into that infinite hope we're all born with and deserve throughout our lives.
This project is about discovering your true self and the life you truly deserve. It's a testament to the power of human resilience and the belief in a brighter future for all.
