Our Confidence Booster session have come together in partner with:

• Wellbeing Workshop Devon CIC

• All-Inclusive Textiles

• Kristina Coles Fashion & Textile Designer.

The purpose of these sessions is to boost the confidence of women by teaching them how to enhance their natural beauty using fashion, discover personal style, discover body shapes and how to dress flatteringly, choosing right colour palette for one’s skin complexion and building a bespoke functional wardrobe. The feedback, from all previous workshops showed that the target of increasing confidence was achieved.

Wellbeing Workshops Devon CIC deliver a one-off wellbeing workshop which aims to build the participants confidence, develop a growth mindset and acceptance of self. This workshop will look to marry the the dress for confidence workshop and practical sewing skills workshop together. 

We (Art Craft & Giggles CIC) run a 6-8 week all Inclusive Textiles programme.  At these workshops we teach ladies to use a sewing machine, understand & cut out a pattern & assemble & sew an easy stitch skirt. This will tie into the previous dress for confidence workshops by giving them the opportunity to create an item of clothing which they feel confident within. This will also give them the skills to be able to adjust their own garments in the future and be able to change their clothing to dress with confidence. 

Our aims are to provide the participants who attend our workshops with the skills to be able to manage and maintain their own wellbeing in relation to understanding and accepting themselves for who they are and their personal appearance. Developing confidence, positive mindset, and practical skills which they can take forward and apply within their lives during and after the workshops. Giving them lifelong skills, which can help to support them throughout their lives.
