Happy Chicks is a group of eight women who use Coquet Trust Head Office as a base for their group where they can meet up and see their friends. This group is totally member led, members make all the decisions about the group, from their name to the money they spend and activities they do.
This is what one of the members had to say about Happy Chicks:
“I enjoy going to my group, the Happy Chicks. My support worker picks me up. We meet on a Monday. I meet with all my friends and I like helping everyone when we first arrive.
We do many activities, in the winter we do inside activities such as arts and crafts, mindfulness, chair aerobics and cookery. I like eating the cakes when we have baked.
In the summer, we go on day trips, such as picnics, walks, visits to Beamish and the Discovery Museum.
The best bits for me is chatting and catching up with my friends and having a coffee.”
