Designs in Mind work with adults experiencing mental health challenges. ‘Members’ work together in warm and encouraging workshops, on: art and design projects; design collaborations; products to be sold online and wholesale; and public art commissions. Based in Oswestry in North Shropshire, Designs in Mind provides opportunities to work with both new and traditional craft techniques. Peer support and peer mentoring are encouraged Referral to the group can come from social prescribers, social workers, mental health services, GPs, occupational therapists, or via self referral through their website. New Members join via ‘new referrals,’ which is a 10 week programme designed to develop the skills needed to join the studio. Once a person is a full Member, they are allocated a ‘studio day’, and also have access to a range of activities including peer support group and the ‘listen and connect’ service. Designs in Mind are able to work with any adult who has experienced mental health difficulties, including those that are more severe and long-lasting.
