MANY Hands 25 CIC craft shop at 25 Kirkgate, Silsden, has reopened this week.

Whilst the shop has been closed, the team has worked hard in the background supporting others through lockdown.

Anxiety and stress have become more prevalent in the lives of so many, and it is more important than ever that Many Hands builds on its involvement in mental health support. To this end, the shop will close on May 26 so that the team can devote time to supporting those struggling with mental health by providing peer support groups, wellbeing workshops and creative therapy alongside their craft workshops.
