A huge thank you to Jenny from Cwm Taff People First for a fabulous day at the My Beautiful Day hackathon at the University of South Wales in Newport on Friday! It was a fantastic opportunity for everyone to express themselves in different ways.

Drama Group: We explored My Home and discussed what makes us feel safe, independent, and comfortable. Some shared that living alone can feel scary, support staff don’t always listen, and managing bills can be difficult. Others spoke about their love for cooking and enjoying their home’s view.

Craft Sessions: Members got creative, using drawings to express their feelings and daily activities.

Music Workshop: Some members wrote a poem and played musical instruments, while others worked together to write a song about what’s important to them and the challenges they face.

It was an inspiring day full of creativity, discussion, and connection. Looking forward to more sessions like this!
