Arts & Crafts

At Ashridge Court Care Home, our Arts & Crafts activities are a vibrant and cherished part of daily life. We believe creativity brings joy, sparks conversation, and enhances the well-being of every resident. Whether it’s painting, pottery, seasonal crafts, or creative workshops, our Arts & Crafts sessions are designed to be inclusive, fun, and fully supportive, no matter someone’s skill level.

Our dedicated coordinators create a warm and welcoming environment where residents can express themselves, socialise, learn new techniques, and take pride in their creations. From simple craft projects to collaborative group art pieces, every session is an opportunity to connect, explore imagination, and enjoy hands-on creativity.

Why We Encourage Residents to Enjoy Arts & Crafts

At Ashridge Court Care Home, we encourage residents to take part in arts and crafts because creative expression plays an important role in emotional wellbeing. Engaging in hands-on activities can help residents feel relaxed, uplifted, and more connected to the present moment. Art offers a gentle way to reduce stress and anxiety, while also providing a sense of purpose and achievement. Whether someone is trying something new or returning to a long-loved hobby, creativity can be deeply rewarding.

Arts and crafts also support cognitive stimulation and social interaction. Taking part in shared creative sessions encourages conversation, laughter, and connection with others, helping residents build friendships and feel part of a community. For some, art can also be a meaningful way to express memories, emotions, or identity when words are difficult. By offering creative opportunities, we help residents maintain confidence, independence, and a strong sense of self.
