Horticultural & Craft Training for People with Learning Disabilities

Arts and Crafts

Service Users who attend Arts and Crafts sessions are encouraged to use a variety of media
 to explore their true creative potential. These take place during the winter months.

The artistic ability of those who choose to come into Art classes varies enormously, however
 by exploring various craft skills, they discover hidden talents which raises their confidence and  helps them maintain their individuality.

This year the Art & Craft department has been changed and now incorporates, sewing, and jewellery making. A small group enjoy going to a Music Matters workshop at Wrenford
which teaches them rhythm and movement. They also have the opportunity to attend a
still painting workshop at Pallant House Gallery.

All the crafts that are produced are available to purchase from our shop.

Leading up to Christmas we were very busy making Christmas tree decorations,
