We are offering this new programme of creative activities with Craig who is an activity and engagement specialist with 13 years’ experience.

Sessions are designed to engage the whole person mentally, physically, emotionally and socially. We use a mixture of music, sing-a-longs, appropriate quizzes, poetry, comedy, reminiscence, learning and discussion as well as energising physical stimulation in the form of big balloon games, percussion, feather conducting and creative movement. It really is the complete package of stimulation, fun and laughter. Some sessions are themed.
