Carol is an accomplished musician and performer and has a wealth of experience in education and health, working with both children and the elderly. Holly has also worked extensively in an educational and caring environment.
Our Aims For the Elderly To provide entertaining, stimulating and thought provoking workshops that instigate conversation and interaction, exercising mind and body.
For Schools To provide educational, interactive workshops in a format that is accessible to all on a wide variety of themes and subjects, from purely sensory packages to curricular subjects. We try to make learning fun and create a thirst for knowledge and encourage further investigation
Listed or Bespoke? You can choose from many of our existing listed workshops or we will create one around the subject matter that you wish to work on. All we need is a space to work in and some allocated time for set up and the session itself.
Our Workshops We try to make our workshops as interactive as possible, encouraging questions, debate and hands on activities, working on the premise that if we can get participants to "live" the subject, they will obtain more from it. Below are some examples:-
