Arts & Crafts

At Penrose Court, we are committed to ensuring our residents live a fulfilled and happy life. We are proud to offer a whole host of activities and entertainment that our residents can enjoy, including our arts & crafts sessions.

Participating in artistic endeavours is known to be both relaxing, and a wonderful way to interact with others. The several benefits arts & crafts have physically and mentally is why we offer a diverse range of crafting activities and encourage our residents to get creative.

The Art of Socialising

During our arts and crafts workshops, our residents get the opportunity to express their feelings in a creative way, as well as laugh and chat with their neighbours in the home. We find that in addition to the social benefits of our sessions, our residents also see improvements to their physical and mental wellbeing, and gain a great sense of self achievement when they complete their masterpiece.

Even those who may not be as creatively-inclined as other residents still have great fun and come away having learned something new, as many of our sessions provide instruction. Our sessions will typically have a theme and objective in mind, for example making flower arrangements or greeting cards. We also like to make sure that our crafting activities are appropriate for people of all ages, meaning you can invite your children and grandchildren to get creative with you.

Be Inspired by Creativity

When it comes to our arts and crafts activities, we like to take inspiration from our residents and surroundings here at Penrose Court. From holding craft classes in the lounge areas, to painting on a sunny day in the garden, we enjoy making the most of what we have accessible to us. Resources will always be provided for our residents to carry out the activities, but we can often find natural resources in the garden and other materials in the home which are great to incorporate into our creations.
