Some excellent illustration skills from Blackpool Young carers in our Create project here, using Rocco their mascot as a superhero advising other carers on how best to look after their finances. A very fancy art room to work in too!

Last week I had a really lovely time leading creative workshops on an adolescent psychiatric ward with Create

Lots of mark making, marbling, printing, rubbings, flower making from coffee filters, concertina book making, collaging and more. 💖🌼

Congratulations to the amazing adult carers who participated in our photography workshops! We're thrilled to see our participants grow in confidence and showcase their incredible photography at the Reed Smith LLP offices. 

Thank you Reed Smith for a wonderful partnership!

This video showcases footage from our Nurturing Talent training day where two up-and-coming artists leading a musical workshop.

Our talented Nurturing Talent artists kicked off the day with lively workshops. From music filled with fruity vibes to vibrant paths and bird-like dances. Later in the day, the nurturing talent artists brought their workshops to Bede House, where participants joined in on the fun

More Creative brought adults with learning disabilities and local schoolchildren together to create vibrant, multicoloured self-portrait collages. The project helped participants break down barriers, learn new skills and develop shared understanding.

For #YoungCarersActionDay we wanted to tell the story of Ariel - a young carer aged 12 - who cares for her mum, Christine, who has PTSD and agoraphobia after serving in the army for 14 years

Watch the film to hear their story and what Fair Futures for Young Carers means to Ariel

“The (Create) projects help carers especially in the half term. Instead of sitting at home, we can go out and about, socialise with others.”
