Calming watercolour painting evening for war widows, defence and veteran families
No skill required, just a brush and a bit of colour! This online wellbeing activity is a calm, confidence-building hour of watercolour painting you can enjoy from home. On Monday 28 September 2026, war widows, defence and veteran families can join our watercolour painting session for a relaxed creative evening alongside others who understand defence and veteran family life.
Watercolour painting
Join us online via Zoom for a one-hour watercolour painting session designed to be calm and confidence-building. You’ll be guided through the basics at an easy pace, so there’s no experience needed — just follow along and enjoy the process. Each household receives one watercolour kit in the post to share.
It’s a screen-free way to unwind, spend quality time together, and connect with other families around the country from the comfort of home. There is no cost to attend, and children are welcome to join in with adult supervision.
Previous attendees to wellbeing activities said “I enjoyed connecting and sharing conversations with others from around the country, spending quality time with my family, and participating in a different activity.”
