Arts & Crafts

If you’re in the mood for creative expression during your stay at Sandmere Care Home, we are delighted to offer exclusive art and crafts sessions for our residents and their guests. Our range of creative events, including art and crafts, is detailed in our full Activities Programme.

Engaging in artistic activities is not only calming but also a wonderful way to connect with others. Recognising the numerous physical and emotional benefits of arts and crafts, we provide a diverse selection of developing crafting programs, encouraging our residents to unleash their creativity.

Unleash Your Inner Artist

Sandmere Care Home provides residents with the opportunity to express their creativity, share laughter and conversation with neighbours and friends during our engaging arts and crafts sessions. These sessions not only build social connections but also contribute to the overall physical and mental well-being of our residents. Completing each masterpiece brings a sense of accomplishment and joy.

Our arts and crafts events are designed to be inclusive and educational, ensuring that even those who may not consider themselves artistically inclined have a fantastic time while learning something new. With themed activities like crafting flower arrangements or greeting cards, these sessions cater to individuals of all ages, allowing residents to involve their children and grandchildren in the creative and enjoyable experience.

Creativity Waits For No One

At Sandmere Care Home, we embrace the spontaneous nature of creativity in our arts and crafts programs. Drawing inspiration from our residents and the surrounding environment, we have all the resources for engaging activities. Whether it’s conducting craft classes in the living rooms or painting on the lawn on a Sunday, we ensure that our residents have access to the necessary supplies.

Additionally, we often explore the natural resources in the garden and other elements of the house, incorporating them into our creative projects. The aim is to make the arts and crafts experience not only enjoyable but also uniquely connected to the environment at Sandmere Care Home.
