Creative Arts for Wellbeing
Open to those facing serious or terminal illness, our Creative Arts for Wellbeing sessions aim to support emotional wellbeing and aid self-esteem.
Group Sessions
Creative Arts sessions are small groups which encourage peer support. They offer a variety of creative art projects, either your own or a guided project. All basic art materials are provided.
These sessions are designed for enjoyment and relaxation. No artistic ability is required, just a willingness to ‘have a go’.
For those who wish to put their memories into words and/or images, we also offer the opportunity to work on creative ways to record memories, through journal keeping and scrapbook making.
Art at Michael Sobell House
Weekly on Wednesday mornings 10.30 – 12.00 for 8 sessions.
Weekly on Thursday mornings 10.30 – 12.00 for 8 sessions.
Art at Lansdowne House
Weekly on Friday afternoons, 11.30 – 13.00 for 4 sessions.
Individual Sessions
If you cannot attend one of our groups, we offer some individual sessions at Michael Sobell House, to include the following:
- Starting a scrapbook or journal of memories.
- Advice and guidance on writing your memory/memories.
- Support with writing letters to people close to you.
