Overview

ECCIC delivers community-based creative wellbeing workshops that support mental health, social connection, and personal development. Our workshops are designed for individuals and families who may face barriers to participation, including low-income households, vulnerable adults, children and young people, people with disabilities, unpaid careers, those with long-term health conditions, and individuals experiencing social isolation or financial hardship.

We aim to provide a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment for all participants, using creative arts as a tool for emotional wellbeing and community connection.
