What Clients Say

  • Shona, Care Home Manager, Care UK

    "Creative Minds is one of the most popular activities in our care home. It is such a pleasure to see the residents create works of art they can be proud of. We notice the resident’s concentration levels increase focusing on their painting and asking for assistance when they are unsure of sketching an outline. This is quite amazing as the residents have dementia and it is so good to see the amazing art created. We are very proud to display the art on our walls and enjoy the compliments from all our visitors. I would recommend Creative Minds to all care homes."

  • Jane, Resident’s Daughter

    "Creative Minds visits my mother’s care home once a fortnight. Hand on heart I can say that not only my mum, but all of the residents, and carers plus visiting relatives have been blown away by the warm, relaxed and professional approach when delivering their Art Sessions. They are always imaginative, fun and creative. I believe that these sessions provide far more to the individual than just an afternoon of fun. They build self confidence and stimulate memories for the participants. Thank you Creative Minds!"

  • Liz, Activity Co-ordinator

    "Creative minds have been a great asset to have for our residents. Our residents truly look forward to the 'Creative Minds Art Sessions' every Tuesday. The variety and supply of wonderful resources that she delivers so professionally is second to none! Our residents absolutely love these sessions!! Well done!!"

  • Kelly, Dept Manager, New Generation Care.

    "The art sessions have provided a controlled outlet for the residents to express themselves and explore things that they may not have done otherwise.  The residents all really look forward to the sessions and the support that he provides is imperative in assisting them to reach the goals they have set for themselves."

  • Sheila, Activity-Co-ordinator, Carebase

    "Creative Minds comes to us every 2 weeks. The work and creativity that goes into planning what to do every session is outstanding. The involvement and commitment that he gives everybody is 100%. The residents really interact well and enjoys the sessions very much. What they produce at the end of a session is amazing. With his knowledge and expertise one of our resident won a Christmas card competition based within our company. I would totally recommend Creative Minds."

  • Isobel, Activity Co-Ordinator, Bupa

    "Creative Minds has been a wonderful find for us here at Puttenham Hill House, they have been with us for about a year, visiting every other Tuesday. We have created small individual projects as well as larger group involvement project, the sessions have been such a great success and that has been mainly down to the artist who delivers the sessions. Every resident is encouraged and treated in the most individual manor; opinions, ideas and ability are all big factors that make Creative Minds such a successful activity. I really couldn't recommend Creative Minds enough they are brilliant for not only our residents but for our home and visitors."

  • Jackie, Activity Co-Ordinator

    "Creative Minds offers stimulating and engaging art sessions to the elderly residents in our nursing home, many of whom are dementia sufferers. The artist who visits us monthly is very gifted and perfectly suited for this type of work, the residents look forward to her coming and it is always a positive experience. I highly recommend this company; they are competitively priced and worth every penny."

  • Charis, Activity Co-ordinator, Avery Healthcare.

They are caring, patient and inspiring. Their manner with residents is exceptional and he encourages all to take part regardless of ability and enables them all to express their inner creative mind and heart! Keep up the good work Creative Minds!"
