Life Skills at Genesis on the Canal
IMPORTANT UPDATE
We have had flooding at our Gateway Centre on London Road and the building is closed. We now have temporary premises for Genesis Life Projects at the back of Widcombe Baptist Church. This includes Life Skills, Lifeline (our day centre) and all of our other projects.
The entrance is between the canal and the back of the church building. Please see the map. If you need to contact our team please EMAIL US or call 01225 438362. You can read more about our Life Skills project below.
Donations of clothes, sleeping bags, toiletries and other things can still be dropped off at our offices at Church Farm Business Park in Corston. Please email office@genesistrust.org.uk to arrange a drop off appointment.
At LIFE SKILLS we offer people access to a range of health and well-being activities that are practical, creative and therapeutic. Our aim is to provide activities that are relevant and of interest to people, meeting them where they are at in their lives without judgement or agenda, with the hope that our activities will be a part of their journey towards a healthier more fulfilling life.
We believe that the best care comes through healing the Mind, Body, Heart and Spirit. With this in mind we offer activities that bring a holistic approach to recovery, trauma and mental health, isolation and a lack of confidence.
Our activities facilitate social participation. People come to these courses with their highs and lows and learn new skills and grow in confidence; many of the skills required for personal development. And sometimes the entry point to further support is through a Life Skills’ course like art or music. A person might not be able to articulate their needs or find it difficult to express their feelings and its through art, for example, where this is made possible.
Open: Tuesdays and Thursdays. See the Latest timetable for details.
