Art and craft

Thursdays are Arts and Crafts Days

From 10 am to 4pm, the Craft group gets stuck into making:

Cards - cushions - soft toys - children's clothes - toilet accessories - decorative items etc stopping briefly for a well earned healthy lunch and a tea break later in the afternoon.

Craft items are often sold at the centre, or at local fairs and our own Christmas Fair and Easter Bazaar.

Art classes are held concurrently, where help and advice is provided on how to achieve a personal masterpiece!

Two exhibitions of our artwork have been arranged, one at Croydon Library in 1999, which was viewed by about 3,000 people, and one at the Sun Lounge, Fairfield Halls, in July 2001.

Saturday workshops

On selected Saturdays during the summer, there are workshops held on Dance, Drama, Comedy, Stage Make-up etc...

Thursday Talks

By a variety of speakers, including our own members, on anything under the sun!

Drama

We have a therapeutic drama programme and patients, carers and volunteers have taken part in shows and pantomimes especially written for the cast and rehersals are great fun.

Robin Hood cast

All the shows, which have been performed at the Centre, local church halls, and even the Ashcroft Theatre, Fairfield Halls, have been sell-outs!
