Creative Age is for people with dementia and their supporters/carers who live independently in Tewkesbury.
We work in a group, exploring creatively through seated movement, dance, words, collective story-making, music, singing, visual arts and poetry – all inspired by the participants’ interests.
Creative sessions are followed by tea and cake with the chance to socialise and get to know each other better.
The Tewkesbury Creative Age sessions are supported by Louise and Megan from The Roses Theatre and hosted by a range of artists who have developed their artistic practice to work with people with Dementia and their carers.
