Our lessons are always fun, useful and aimed at developing learners’ speaking skills in order to communicate their needs in everyday life, find a job and be able to live their lives fully.  I am happy to be part of H.E.L.P team and make a difference to people through delivering ESOL lessons.

## Art Therapy Sessions 

We ran a series of Art therapy sessions for 12 weeks, in conjunction with CEAAC. We also offered one-to-one counselling with qualified counsellors Tessa & Shubina. We continue to offer wellbeing sessions on Wednesdays for the coming year. 

Here is one of the participants' feedback: _"I have been having a one-to-one counselling session with Shubina, a counsellor at H.E.L.P charity for more than five months, and I had my last session on Friday, 14th July 2023. Initially, I was very depressed and anxious, worried about what life holds for me in this new country. Shubina has really helped me in taking back control of my life and feeling more confident about myself. I am very grateful to H.E.L.P charity for their support."_ - A 

Twenty nine service users were referred or self-referred to the program, included men and women, from Ukraine, Egypt, Cameroon, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sudan and Kurdistan. 

We received great feedback from participants and referring organisations, who saw a big  positive change in their service users.
