Mindful Mondays will help you to start your week in a calm and positive way in a warm and welcoming environment with a range of activities focusing on mindfulness, wellbeing and self-care. The very best way to start your week with intention!

There will also be the opportunity to purchase refreshments and delicious home cooked food (not included in the £5 entry fee).
 
The sessions will be open to all and provide an opportunity to step inside the café and become familiar and comfortable in this space.
 
 
A warm welcome is guaranteed to you all. We hope to see you there… please spread the word!
 
Mindful Mondays is a new community initiative brought to you by The Woodyard project in collaboration with the Castle Chambers Café and Space to Be Wellbeing CIC.
 
The Woodyard project is inspired by the fictional Woodyard community hub created by Ann Cleeves in her book ‘The Long Call’ – a place where all are welcome and no-one is lonely.
