Creativity comes in all forms; from a doodle on a coaster to a watercolour painting, a poem about your pet, an inspirational quote you heard, taking a photo of something that catches your eye. Creativity is all around us; for example, in the clothes we wear, to the items we choose to have in our house. We use our creativity in a variety of activities such as gardening, cooking, nature walks and singing.
Neuro Creatives is a safe space where you can try a creative activity and contribute to a forum that shares ideas and inspirations. It is facilitated by our Arts Counsellor Kate Hasted with support from our Neuro Creatives volunteers Sarah and Alyson.
Our Neuro Creatives Summer group will offer a warm, supportive space for those living with neurological conditions to explore creativity as a tool for self-care and improved wellbeing. We will be exploring a variety of creative themes to inspire you to bring creativity into your lives. We are a friendly and relaxed group, you don’t need to have any previous artistic experience, and we aim to use low-cost art materials or recycled items from your home.
The group will meet online via Zoom on Friday mornings – 10.30am-12pm from 14th August – 25th September 2026.
The group is now full. If you want to register your interest for this group or to have more information, please contact [email protected].

“We aim to provide a variety of accessible activities, for example; drawing, creative writing, collage, crafting that can be achieved remotely and mostly with resources sourced from your home environment. Activities may involve a mixture of working independently, working in pairs or small groups. All sessions will incorporate some time for sharing with each other and reflecting on the work achieved. I look forward to welcoming you on board!”
