case studies
Pilgrim Hearts works with a variety of different groups using different creative arts activities.
Our creative arts workshops help people develop their gifts, and regain their self-esteem through sharing experiences and self-expression. We work with many Christian Charities and community groups in Berkshire and with the local Schools.
We specialise in working with vulnerable adults with addictions, mental health issues and special needs, as we unlock their creative ability through the process.
The stories from previous projects are told in this section to give you an idea of the sort of things that can be done and what can be achieved. If you are interested in developing a project with Pilgrim Hearts please contact Elaine Chalmers-Brown to discuss your requirements, and we can create a bespoke project to meet your needs.
Women's Centre; Voice for the Voiceless
Voice for the Voiceless was a series of drama and arts workshops at the Reading Churches Women’s Centre aimed at helping women who feel vulnerable to express their needs and to boost their personal confidence. They explored the role of women in society throughout the ages using dance, costumes, writing, video and drama. And, in the process, they discovered and increased their creative skills.

This project extends our work with women attending the day centre.
As part of this project a website will be set up and run by the volunteers for CIRWC. The course will provide encouragement and develop the necessary skills required to run such a website.
This project will be of assistance to many women of all ages and backgrounds using big or small contributions and working as a team to achieve something worthwhile and enjoyable. This we see as a key to healing and increased self reliance enabling them to regain their rightful place in society.
