A Safe and Relaxed Space for Children
90% of children have improved confidence, self esteem and coping skills

Creative Play
Connecting Children with Nature
81% of children improved their mental & physical health with outdoor creative play
Creative Play gets primary school children interacting with their natural surroundings – sparking imaginations and allowing exploration of new ideas and activities which are fun and increase physical activity.
Our fully trained and qualified creative practitioners support children in a range of creative outdoor activities.
Schools Artist In Residence
Bringing the Most Exciting Visual Artists to Primary School Children
Our Artist in Residence programme brings the most exciting visual artists to Primary School children living in communities where they are unlikely to have opportunities for creative expression; are least likely to have ready access to arts materials in their own homes; and are least likely to visit galleries.
Work is co-produced with children, giving them an opportunity to be heard & seen and is curated through high quality exhibitions that celebrate achievements.
Supporting positive engagement in learning, helping to raise attainment.
If your Primary School is interested in getting involved then please get in touch.
Art Wise
Parenting through creative connections
Working with a qualified Art Therapist and wellbeing Support Worker we will support you and your family with any challenges you may be facing and help develop those relationships through creative play to better understand your child(ren’s) behaviour and communicate and support them to identify their own needs and coping strategies using art and creativity.
