Getting Crafty for Autumn

16th Sep 2020

Bridgewater Day Care is getting Crafty for Autumn.

It’s that time of year again. The leaves are changing colours, the nights are cooler, and Autumn is right around the corner and here at Bridgewater Day Care Centre we are getting ready for it!

We decided to do some fun Autumn-themed crafts with our lovely clients and here are the fabulous results of all their creativity.

Bridgewater Day Care Centre recognises the vital importance of meaningful occupation for our clients and we find that creative activities can boost mood and reduce anxiety.

We try and keep our projects simple enough that clients can do them without getting frustrated and so that creative activities help to boost self-esteem, provide a sense of achievement and pride.

The Alzheimer’s Society has highlighted stories about crafts and creative activities here: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/categories/crafts-creative-activities

We also love this blog about Heather O’Neil’s mother who was diagnosed with dementia, and she decided to use creativity to help her.

Please contact one of our friendly team if you would like to know more about Bridgewater Day Care Centre or to discuss the activities and support that we provide for our clients:
