    It’s tough getting out and about isn’t it? In my area we have an umbrella centre that has all sorts of activities. Your GP surgery or library may know of what’s on offer in your area.

    I suppose we'd need to know in roughly what area you live to help much amazingblazing68.

    I just googled:

    Art Support Groups Near me

    Art Trauma Support Groups Near Me

    And

    Art "trauma support" groups near me

    That presented quite a few options. The speech marks in the third search make it look for pages which specifically refer to the phrase trauma support, in case your curious. That can be a useful trick when searching.

    I was involved with organising and teaching such things in Liverpool and Manchester in the 90s and 00s (Greenbank College, Shaw Trust, Liverpool Music Centre, North West Disability Arts Forum, Bluecoat Gallery, FACT etc). I'm confident at least some of them will still do that kind of thing. There's quite a lot of it goes on.

    Good luck
