EVENTS CURRENTLY RUNNING IN THE SHED

• Eating Disorders Day Programme, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9.30am to 4pm.  Day programmes are an exciting new form of treatment for people with eating disorders.  They provide a step down from hospital treatment and a smooth transition back in to the community, as well as a step up from outpatient care.  The programme provides an individualised and holistic service, incorporating elements of heart, mind and body.  With an emphasis on the importance of life outside the eating disorder, the programme broadens the perspectives of attendees, thereby diminishing the influence of food, eating and weight on happiness, and improving the overall quality of life.
• WOW GIRLS meetings are held on the 1st Tuesday of the month, from 6.30-9pm. 
  The WOWgirls vision is about bringing community together - through women - embracing the uniqueness of each one of us and the ability to develop and share our gifts and wisdom. An acceptance of each individual’s life situation, direction and ability to contribute is fundamental to WOWgirls as is respect for all religious beliefs and cultural differences.                              SHARING   –   SUPPORTING   –   WORKING TOGETHER
