Ageing Well, Arts and Crafts Sessions for over 60s launching in Bedworth, Warwickshire!
Warwickshire-based Arts Uplift are launching weekly Arts and Crafts sessions in Bedworth as part of their Ageing Well programme to help older people stay independent and healthy. These ‘pay what you can’, dementia friendly sessions are suitable for adults over 60 of all abilities. The sessions will take place at the Old Meeting United Reformed Church, Leicester St, Bedworth, CV12 8JR on Wednesday’s for 6 weeks starting from 18th November, from 10:30 am to 12 noon.
Come and spend your morning connecting with others, to express your creativity and help improve mental health and boost overall wellbeing. The sessions are designed to accommodate adults of all abilities, including people affected by dementia, Parkinson's or other disabilities. The Weekly sessions are built around increasing confidence, improving hand to eye co-ordination, meeting new friends and reducing loneliness. Sessions will include a variety of activities with a Xmas theme from painting xmas trees, to wreath making and to creating snow lights. Join us to stay healthy while having fun and learning new skills!
Jenny Davis, Executive Director of Arts Uplift says “I am delighted to bring back these workshops to Bedworth. The community can have some time to relax, get creative, learn new skills, gain confidence and meet new people especially as the winter is approaching.”
A previous participant said that “Aish and Laura have been wonderful, patient and very caring when I've had a bad day.”
The sessions are funded by Warwickshire county council, Arts Friends Warwickshire and Heart of England co-operative.
