Heart for Art Project 

The Memory Club are delighted to be able to begin working alongside Crossreach to offer this new painting project as an additional 2 afternoons each month, for people living with dementia.  no experience of painting is required and participants can enjoy a sense of achievement in producing a painting and hopefully their carers can have a little respite and everyone can enjoy some social interaction and support over a cup of tea or coffee.  The first meeting is on Wed 19th March at 1 till 3 in the large hall of Trinity Church.  The project can only cope with 12 participants and their carers and already we have 12 eager to get started painting.  However, if this is something you feel you might enjoy we intend to hold a waiting list so that if places are not filled we can get in contact with you.  Please contact Lynda Horn on 07778579504

Some pictures of the activity which those attending the memory club enjoyed. The plan is for the carers to go to the small hall for tea and chat. Heart for Art will be held on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of the month.
