Joint collage many of #CraftCafe members have contributed to for the Out of Sight, Out of Mind exhibition, about creativity & mental health. Made as the theme for the exhibition is 'gatherings', using the Craft Cafe as an example of a place that uses creativity for wellbeing ❀

Absolutely yes to this. As someone said to me, β€˜the controllers are having a heyday’ & the biggest risk right now as we age is we are wrapped in cotton wool and then die of boredom, loneliness & lack of hope. We need to call this out every day & support older adults to LIVE.

Heading from a very cold Ayrshire to join the amazing Luminate Scotland at a reception in the Scottish Parliament to celebrate 10 years of creativity, innovation and excellence challenging all the stereotypes about #olderage. #creativeageing

"The atmosphere at Craft Cafe is unique in its inclusiveness and friendliness. It’s like nowhere else." Nothing delights us more than bringing people together through art. Art is connection, understanding, and community - and that is what you see at our Craft Cafes. #WorldArtDay

Loved this. Everyone got involved and helped to create such beautiful artwork. Looking forward to the exhibition later in the year.

Lighting tonight’s #candleforcare thinking of all who are #deaf and hard of #hearing, all who support and care for them especially all who are #older. We must always work to make #inclusion real and more than a word.
