We are raising funds through The Big Give Christmas Challenge!

 

 

Join us this year and help raise much-needed funds for our wellbeing programme of art sessions at Turner’s House for those with mental health problems, older people and our local refugee and migrant communities.

“I experience long-term mental health issues, and have had various treatment programmes over past years. I find the atmosphere to be calming and welcome in contrast to the outside world, a place where me behaving oddly is accepted and where I will be helped” (participant quote 2023)

This year we are aiming to raise £10,000. Every single penny raised will support the delivery of creative sessions to help participants build social and artistic skills and improve mental health and wellbeing.

 


Turner’s House is now closed to the public until February 2024.

In 1813 England’s great landscape painter J.M.W. Turner built a small villa, Sandycombe Lodge, on a large plot near the Thames at Twickenham. Here, the painter became an architect, guided by the hand of his friend John Soane.
