Let's share the love...
Mindful Monday on 9th February 2026, 10am to 2pm at Castle Chambers Cafe, 26 Castle Street, Barnstaple.
With Valentine’s Day coming up, we invite you to take a mindful moment to think about the people close to you.
Join us on Monday 9th February, where we will have everything you need to create something beautiful for someone special, or gift yourself the love and care you deserve by making your future self something to enjoy on a day where you might need it the most.
You can write a message in a bauble, decorate a card, and even give a compliment using a ‘scratch to reveal’ sticker. Please feel free to bring additional accessories such as confetti or ribbon to use as extra decoration if you would like to make something more personalised.
- Space to Be Wellbeing CIC will also be hosting their Hands on Books workshop from 10am to 12pm in the Castle Centre Hall next door. During the session, you’ll learn to create your own miniature books to take home. All you need to take part in the workshop is make a small community contribution of £3–£6 on the day.*
- Mat Verney will also join us to talk informally about mindfulness techniques and how to incorporate these into your every day
- Plus of course we will be busy with our other #MindfulMonday activities with craft activities, board games and the chance to create and connect with others or to simply chill and relax.
The café will be open to buy hot drinks, snacks or to have lunch – so please do give your support. We also have our Pay It Forward board to share the love by gifting a hot drink, snack or lunch to someone who could really need a boost.
If attending the workshop, the £5 Mindful Monday entry fee will be waived – although it would be appreciated if you could support the Café by buying a hot drink or snack while you’re there.*
