Social & Recreational Engagement

What we do

Social & recreational Engagement

ELSH creates vital social and recreational networks to reduce isolation for Barnsley’s migrant community. We welcome everyone into our friendly spaces.

  • The Warm Place: Welcomes individuals with free hot meals, games, and music.
  • Peer Support: Fosters a relaxed space for informal English conversation and making friends.
  • Women’s Groups: Offers tailored, safe environments for female attendees to build local connections.
  • Allotment Project: Engages participants in outdoor gardening, food growing, and teamwork.
  • Eco-Therapy: Uses nature-based recreation to boost mental wellbeing, confidence, and physical health. Come along to connect, share, and belong.
