The Carpenter’s Arms is part of 4:12 Ministries. Charity No. 1058105

A Loughborough based rehabilitation centre for men.

Life is not dull, we do get out and about.....

We  try to get out at least once a week  and get involved in different activities. We believe that recovery best takes place in an encouraging well balanced environment.  Enjoying these activities together helps build self-esteem and promotes good relationships.  We try and get the balance right with ingredients such as Support sessions, adult education, work parties, Church, balanced diet, sport and activities like these.

KAYAKING

SCUBA

RUNNING

CAMPING

Kayaking is a favourite activity in the Summer months.  We will often an afternoon finding our way around the Grand Central Canal with ice-creams afterwards, of course!

From time to time we take interested residents out to a local Scuba Dive Club and give them a Try Dive.  This is enormously popular and several want to follow diving further.

We generally enter the Santa Fun Run in December and raise funds for the Charity.  It is usually time of great hilarity and a good time is had by all.

We go camping at least once in the warmer months. We spent a week near the Jurassic Coast (fossils!) last year and visited attractions in the area.
