The main activity revolved around mind mapping through art, where attendees painted their favourite daily routes—whether it was a walk to the supermarket, a commute to the train station, or their morning routine mapped out visually. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/7dd6f758-ff4b-4b12-931f-89b463cca847/IMG-20250328-WA0021.jpg Latest News - Mapping Memories: A Therapeutic Art Experience - The session was intimate and engaging, with just a handful of participants, allowing for personalised guidance and a relaxed, open atmosphere. The artwork produced was both thoughtful and beautiful, and we’re thrilled that some of these pieces will be considered for Painting Progress’ annual art exhibition in May 2025. Therapeutic art workshops of this nature are a vital part of our work in supporting asylum seekers and refugees, many of whom have faced immense challenges. Through creativity, we aim to provide a sense of community, emotional relief, and a space for self-expression. Art can be a powerful tool for mental health, helping to process difficult experiences while fostering connection and belonging. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/1743766862652-8HEC8Y7M5HMQPW7Z3G7G/IMG-20250328-WA0025.jpg Latest News - Mapping Memories: A Therapeutic Art Experience https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/1743766863250-73IOT2WHLCHTCJB2NFC2/IMG-20250328-WA0026.jpg Latest News - Mapping Memories: A Therapeutic Art Experience https://www.cottontreetrust.org.uk/news/a-trip-to-migrateful-cooking-class monthly 0.5 2024-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/62b846ab-8b02-4fa3-b0aa-892b5b7a9693/Screenshot+2024-03-19+at+10.55.17.png Latest News - A Trip to Migrateful Cooking Class Last week, Cotton Tree members, staff and volunteers journeyed to Migrateful cookery school where we took part in an exciting tutorial led by Chef Fatima, who loves experimenting with ingredients and sharing her recipes with others. Fatima taught us about how to make two traditional Iranian dishes, Ash-e Goje and vegetable samosas with a minty yoghurt dip, sharing stories and memories with us about her hometown along the way. She says, “By sharing these dishes, I hope to recreate fond memories I have of Iranian food and culture. Iranian people are very hospitable. I’m happy to welcome you to my class, to give you a taste of the country and people.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/fd09f780-ea3a-4e8e-97e5-b715507b82dd/Screenshot+2024-03-19+at+10.57.09.jpg Latest News - A Trip to Migrateful Cooking Class First, Fatima demonstrated how to make her favourite vegetarian dish - Ash-e Goje, bursting with borlotti beans, tomatoes, rice, vegetables, fresh herbs and spices mixed together in one large pan to create amazing flavours and rich colours. She also showed us how to make a green garnish to sprinkle on top, dried mint cooked with oil and the star ingredient of the day - abghooreh, sour young grape juice which Fatima loves so much she used to drink it from the bottle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/935c30de-9f73-4234-8719-9f1a2cf0950b/Screenshot+2024-03-19+at+10.54.07.jpg Latest News - A Trip to Migrateful Cooking Class - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/baaa2319-819e-4cd3-ab60-e62a9ab91eae/Screenshot+2024-03-19+at+10.54.35.png Latest News - A Trip to Migrateful Cooking Class https://www.cottontreetrust.org.uk/news/fellow-travelers-monthly-lunch-club-july-2023 monthly 0.5 2023-07-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/796d6517-3f57-4eac-96e9-45a77580b241/IMG_0032.jpg Latest News - Fellow Travelers Monthly Lunch Club: July 2023 The Cotton Tree recently brought together its wonderful members, dedicated staff, and enthusiastic volunteers for a heartwarming event - the eagerly anticipated Fellow Travelers Lunch Club. After not seeing each other for two months, the joy and excitement were palpable as everybody reunited. It was a heartening gathering filled not only with delicious food but also with delightful conversations that truly warmed our hearts. The main theme of our discussions revolved around resilience - finding strength in the face of challenges, learning from life's ups and downs, and being there for each other in times of need. It was a beautiful reminder of the unbreakable spirit that defines our community. https://www.cottontreetrust.org.uk/news/cotton-tree-participated-in-the-london-legal-walk monthly 0.5 2023-06-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/dd4b5295-46ec-48cb-8ddd-d1e5d31334ea/IMG_9377.JPG Latest News - Cotton Tree participated in the London Legal Walk!

Two tigers and a handsome T rex wearing a red bow tie were on the loose. Fortunately, we were assured that these beasts were kind, not predatory, so everyone was able to relax. We also had an adorable pussy cat and another sweet animal (presumed not to be dangerous), whose species will remain a mystery. Quite a menagerie. Thank you, Roshan, for the lovely face painting! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/00f4e740-9211-4146-90b8-c80d81512174/IMG-0104.jpg Latest News - The Cotton Tree Spring Party 2023 When the food was cleared away, Ruth produced a small gift for Janet, and everyone was delighted to get one too. It is a tote bag with images of beautiful textile work by two of our members. As befits an organisation called the Cotton Tree, it is made of high quality organic cotton. Being organic, eating it might even enhance your health – but we recommend that you keep it as a forever bag and use it for your shopping. https://www.cottontreetrust.org.uk/news/fellow-travellers-monthly-lunch-club monthly 0.5 2023-11-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/675a7d00-97c1-4cf9-8bde-948ede1c42bb/IMG_8777.jpg Latest News - Fellow Travellers Monthly Lunch Club At the heart of our work in the Cotton Tree is the dedication to the dignity and well-being of those who are rebuilding their lives in the UK.

The atmosphere is always warm and lively. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/8739017c-ebf0-4ff2-b8bf-405e625fd3da/IMG_8772.jpg Latest News - Fellow Travellers Monthly Lunch Club https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/0ed57db9-622e-4b7f-b988-a2426633d1ca/IMG_8771.jpg Latest News - Fellow Travellers Monthly Lunch Club - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.cottontreetrust.org.uk/news/the-cotton-tree-christmas-party monthly 0.5 2023-11-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/1675257323840-3KTNBHY1EZ3S7UISZ160/Christmas+Party+2022+%282%29.png Latest News - The Cotton Tree Christmas party 2022 - It was a bleak midwinter. Ice on the ground. A poorly lit path. Christmas 2022 After two miserable years of cancelled parties and other meet-ups, the Cotton Tree community came together for a banquet and joyful reunion. The church was filled with light and warmth. Despite the cost-of-living crisis, the thermostat was up. Fairy lights twinkled from the pillars, the ceilings and the walls. https://www.cottontreetrust.org.uk/news/lemonade-whizz-kids-donate-to-the-cotton-tree monthly 0.5 2022-07-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/e3b28329-98ed-4c79-967c-05b8908bc302/IMG-8756.jpg Latest News - LEMONADE WHIZZ KIDS DONATE TO THE COTTON TREE - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.cottontreetrust.org.uk/news/newsletter-summer-2022 monthly 0.5 2023-02-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61eff5816a4193387fad77ec/3143c426-33c0-4c44-8c42-55c98bb6dcdd/PHOTO-2023-02-01-13-46-20.jpg Latest News - Newsletter - Summer 2022 - Summer Party Our Summer party was a great success, with lovely homemade food as always and a brilliant (occasionally hilarious) magic show by trustee George, with volunteer Claire accompanying him on the flute.
