CREATIVE RESOURCES

This list of resources was created after the applications for the Creative Health Project were submitted. Whilst only a few homes were able to be awarded some funding, many more could still include creative health activities by using these resources – most of which are free to access. I did share this list with all the providers in January, as the resources are not just limited to residents in care homes, but we’ve grown so much since then, that it is well worth sharing again.

I hope that you can all find something interesting and creative to add into the care you already provide to enrich the lives of our service users.
