How do we create safe, inclusive and creative spaces for vulnerable adults?

Last month, EXPLORE brought together artists and project managers to share learning on supporting adult carers and other vulnerable adults through the arts.

🌟 Earlier this month, adult carers in Harrow connected and expressed themselves through creative writing!

📖 From poetry and prose to character and world-building, adult carers took time for themselves, and even discovered new talents!

[Create @createcharity]

🎨 Sometimes creativity is less about self-expression and more about self-discovery.
