Sip and Social

Sip and Social is an opportunity to drop-in to see our Wellbeing Practitioner, Eleanor, for casual conversation and easy-going activities such as board games, creative writing and drawing. Whether you’re at a loose end and fancy a bit of company, or need a chat about something deeper, we’d love to welcome you for a cuppa.

We’ll be gathering for a special edition of Sip and Social on Wednesday 14 October at 2pm, for an afternoon of creative story-telling activities hosted together with Scope and Being You Leeds, for anyone who identifies as having a disability. We’ll prepare resources for journalling, knitting, song-writing, and a memorable design-your-own monopoly!

We believe that Safeguarding is at the heart of Sanctuary, and you can read our Safeguarding policy here. We do take photos at these events which may be shared in digital spaces and in print, but if you would prefer not to be in these photos, please let a member of our Team know on the day.
