Northern Butterflies
Northern Butterflies is a small creative charity established in 2013 by Sam Goodlet, a practicing artist and former art teacher. The programme supports people in Northumberland who have a learning disability or are experiencing mental ill-health, by using artistic practices to boost their wellbeing and confidence. We are offering workshops in Maths, English, community arts, digital skills, health and wellbeing.
