What we do and what we’re bringing to the DDN Conference
B3 is a Brent-based LERO that supports individuals affected by substance use. Through structured weekly meetings, personal development courses, and BSAFE (Brent Social Access for Everyone) – a weekend drop-in service – clients can access guidance, community, and a safe space to stay engaged in their recovery.
As part of BSAFE, we run the BSAFE Recovery Arts & Crafts workshop every Sunday: a calm, creative session where people in recovery can unwind, connect, and explore their artistic side in a relaxed and supportive setting. The group is led by experienced artists Aaron, Thomas, and Layla.
At the upcoming DDN Conference on 10th July, we’re recreating this welcoming atmosphere through three hands-on art activities:
- Decoupage – decorating glass containers with tissue and Mod Podge
- Gel plate printing – creating textured prints using paint, lace, and leaves
- Collage – building mixed-media art using cut-outs and found materials
It’s an opportunity to express creativity, try something new, and experience the sense of calm, connection, and community that defines B3 and our BSAFE Sunday sessions.
