Our job is to guide and help the senior to enjoy the process of creating.
They are talented, creative people that just need some incentive to find happiness again through art, writing, dancing and expressing themselves.
Nights can be lonely and potentially unsafe for the elderly and vulnerable and precisely why we chose to offer overnight stay services.

We may be able to help you if you older and you have an illness or injury which causes you difficulties managing with your normal daily routines.
Art at home for Seniors in Ireland
Art has long been considered a relaxing activity. Creating something from nothing, using pencils, paint, clay or other materials can be a satisfying experience. For seniors, art can also help restore functioning and a general sense of well-being.
The Benefits of Art for Seniors includes:
Increases cognitive skills and intellectual stimulation.
Challenging seniors to create art gives them an opportunity to expand their minds and look at things from a new perspective. For those dealing with memory loss, the simple act of creating may stimulate the senses and trigger long-forgotten memories.
Improves physical/motor skills and alleviates pain.
Creating artwork helps benefit coordination through small, purposeful movements, leading to less pain and even an enhanced immune system. Art allows seniors to focus less on their chronic aches and pains and instead concentrate on the creative process at hand.
Promotes socialization and communication.
The practice of Art allows for an alternate means of connecting with others, helping to lessen feelings of loneliness and isolation many seniors may face. Those who have difficulty expressing themselves or communicating with Others often may find using visual means to be extremely helpful.
Relieves stress and depression. Creating art allows for an open expression of Feelings, which can help relieve stress, anxiety, and confusion.
Promotes self-awareness and self-expression. Expressing oneself through art can be powerful. A meaningful way to share our lives with others. Plus, finding a new creative Outlet can unlock hidden passions many may not realize they process.
