We have witnessed first hand how effective art can be in promoting self worth and strength through Emma Codrington and her work with ACEDA, in presenting her exhibition entitled Chrysalis. Emma had suffered from a mental illness in the form of anorexia. It is Emma’s belief that her creativity gave her the self worth and strength to overcome her eating disorder and now help others through her exhibitions and book. Foundation Shine Inc. have actively supported Emma and ACEDA with this important project. This got Robyn and Sharon to thinking about the value of art and craft workshops.  We both have excellent contacts who could deliver interesting and fulfilling classes in painting and making pieces, including sewing, patchwork and general craft.  These sessions would not only deliver learning skills, but companionship and fun.
