Giving people opportunities to explore their creativity…..and have fun as they do so. 

We specialise in working with people living with dementia and their partners/supporters, exploring creative ways to help maintain active, fulfilling lives and relieve daily stresses. 

We are not reminiscence workers. We are more interested in being in the ‘here and now’ and all the surprises that can bring with it.

As a collective, we love to work collaboratively, combining different art forms, but we can also provide sessions using single art forms. We are always up for talking and sharing with others working in this field!

Where we work

Our Approach

  • Starting well

    Before we start working creatively with participants, we meet and find out about them – get a sense of who they are, their interests, likes and dislikes. These then provide starting points, enabling creative sessions to be participant-led from the beginning. We aim always to engender a safe, non-judgmental environment, where the needs of all participants can be met.

  • Exploring together

    We engage and explore through a range of art forms - movement, story-making, drama, poetry, music, crafting and visual arts. We constantly seek opportunities for participants to contribute, to enable them to feel valued and empowered.

  • Inspiring stories

    Sessions can be themed and use a range of sensory stimuli to engage participants' imaginations. We often use props to inspire us in non-verbal, movement-based explorations as well as in playful story- and poetry-making.
