The Shambellie House Trust has secured £29,960 from the Scottish Government’s Communities Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund.
Sue Hughes, manager at the property near New Abbey, said: “A core part of this funded project is to deliver a Wellness Through Creativity programme, taking advantage of the peaceful and calming atmosphere of Shambellie House and its grounds.
“Working with local creatives, participants will experience a taster session in an artform, be it drawing, painting, sewing, music; then will be given the opportunity to relax and socialise over coffee and cake, carry on with their artwork, read, meditate, take time out and gain some breathing space.”
