Positive Creative Experiences for Children

We know that children love taking part in fun creative activities!

Research also shows the wider benefits of creative engagement, particularly for children and those that care for them. It can help bring joy, support children to overcome trauma; create bonds as well as keep children and families (in all their various shapes and sizes) healthy and happy.

If you are a parent, carer or work in education and have children that might benefit from a creative approach then we currently deliver three distinct programmes that you might be interested in.
