Arts & Crafts

Oakbank Care Home is committed to making sure all of our residents experience a fulfilled, joyful life and we take great pride in offering a range of diverse activities and entertainment including arts and crafts, organised by our Activity Coordinator.

Engaging in many creative activities provides benefits for our residents’ mental, emotional and physical health. Our activities programme is designed to be as inclusive as possible for our residents, providing a variety of accessible activities suitable for everyone.

Numerous Benefits to Enjoy

Getting involved in arts and crafts not only brings our residents happiness and joy, but it also provides them with mental, physical and emotional advantages. We have realised that regular participation in arts and craft sessions, especially in a group setting, encourages social connections between residents. This social engagement provides residents with opportunities to interact and form connections with others they may not have had a chance to interact with previously.

It’s also known that when residents get involved in these creative activities, it improves their hand-eye coordination, motor skills and memory. Attending these sessions on a regular occurrence offers our residents a wealth of benefits and we love to witness the improved wellbeing of our residents, all within a safe and comfortable environment.

Fostering Creativity

Within our home, our aim is to nurture creativity during every opportunity, whether thats participating in arts and crafts, flower arranging, or sitting in our beautiful garden enjoying reading a book, or knitting; we embrace the creative spirit. Following this, we take great delight in creating outdoor-themed arts and crafts using entirely natural materials, in which can be transformed into art, pressed flowers, wreaths and even bird feeders.
