Click to ZoomResidential learners in the Independent Living Area at LVS Hassocks have been enjoying weekly aromatherapy workshops – but it hasn’t all been about fun, they have been industriously preparing items to sell.
Click to ZoomWith LVS Hassocks always seeking to provide learners with new skills to allow them to become independent, massage therapist Mandy Simmerling – who is also an aromatherapist and cosmetologist and qualified to teach aromatherapy – has been running evening workshops.
The sessions have included training on making hand creams, organic soap and room sprays, with a focus on creating goods to sell at the Christmas Sharing event.
Their reward for the hard work has been pamper evenings where they have been able to enjoy treatments such as hand and arm massage, foot scrubs and face packs.
