WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
INVALUABLE
“The Artroom is invaluable to me. It is my primary social interaction and the only place I can express myself creatively doing artwork and sculptures. It's so good to have somewhere I can be myself and people don’t judge me for my mental health. It is a warm community type place.”

LIFE CHANGING
“Just helps 100%, tenfold, I think a lot of problems I’ve had, I’ve had antidepressants thrown at us but to make yourself happy you have to make yourself proud of yourself and this got me back to doing my art – I’m like a different person, I was diagnosed with social anxiety but now I am talking to people more.”
Simon. N Chilli Studio Member
UNIQUE
“I think Chill Studios is an incredibly important resource for people …. coming to terms with the real deficit imposed on them by their mental health problems. Its importance is even greater today than ever…in my opinion it provides a unique range of support ….and brings in an important but often overlooked part in recovery”
