The Sisterhood Project is all about empowering women through creativity, building social connections, and fostering confidence and self-expression. Our free workshops, supported by Leicestershire County Council and the NHS, offer a safe and welcoming space to explore visual arts, movement, mindfulness, nature connection, and storytelling. These workshops were held at Shepshed Volunteer Center in Loughborough and this project was organised by Buzzing Roots CIC. https://www.buzzingroots.co.uk/

During these workshops, we explored a range of creative modalities such as visual arts, explorative movement, mindfulness and breathing techniques, nature connection, and storytelling.
