On Monday 30th January, our Northfleet Group took part in Scent-candle making activity; under the supervision of Fiona from Kent Adult Education.

Members learned the process of making a scented candle from scratch, by learning how to create top quality, fragrant, natural candles that they can feel proud to burn in their home, alongside gaining skills to start a business.

Our members enjoyed a relaxed atmosphere and left with beautiful handmade soy wax candles – one large 30 cl and a smaller 12 cl, and finished the day with a discussion and a delicious afternoon tea.

According to health studies, some of the key benefits of scented candles in your home include:
- They can create an atmosphere and ambiance.
- They can brighten up your home decor.
- Theyadd fragrance to your space.
- They can help bring back memories.
- They can boost your mood and relieves stress.
The feedback from our Northfleet members was that the activity was very interesting and THEY ARE looking forward to learning more about other candle skills.
