Self-expression
Painting, drawing and modelling can support self-expression for people who find words harder.

A space for those creative moments — painting, drawing and sensory clay modelling, with equipment adapted so nobody is left out.

The Arts & Crafts Room is for painting, drawing, sensory clay modelling and making decorations and cards for special occasions — the opportunities are wide open. Specialist equipment, including an easel that adjusts to different reach and grip needs, long-handled paint brushes and large-grip colouring and drawing tools, means people of all abilities can take part.
Adjustable, tilting art tables make the space workable for wheelchair users and people who need a different angle to work at, so creating is about the person, not the equipment getting in the way.
