Our Herne Bay Hub art group enjoyed an inspiring visit to the SarahBaulchGallery to see a fascinating exhibition of wood and silver insects and beetles. 💬"All the pictures are nice. I like the rabbit and the elephant, and all the insects on the chessboard," shared Tina. 💬Richie added, 'It was really amazing. I loved holding the bees so much." ✨It's great to get out, explore, and be inspired by other artists. #hernebay #sarahbaulchgallery #eastkentmencap
Thanks to everyone at Festability Quex park for an incredible time. Going to an accessible music festival was an amazing experience for East Kent Mencap's Swale Hub and was made possible thanks to the Queensborough Fishery Trust. The live bands, dancing, and inclusive atmosphere were fantastic.

British Sign Language Week
✨This week we celebrated British Sign Language Week and raised awareness for this important visual means of communication.
🎶Support Worker, Gemma, leads our Swale Hub signing sessions every week. The group is currently learning to sign through songs, as well as learning a sign of the week, which they then help others to learn outside of the session. They are passionate about using sign language throughout the day at the Hub.
🙏A huge thank you to Laurie, Vanessa and Cieran for signing this great video message. Keep up the fantastic work!👏
