As well as accessing our specialist team who can provide support to help manage symptoms and live well, our Life Celebration & Creative Activities Coordinator guides creative therapy sessions allowing patients to discover a new talent or enjoy a long-forgotten hobby.
We encourage patients to talk about their lives and explore ways in which they might like to leave something which celebrates life-moments, for family or loved ones.
Some of the things we do:
We can listen to and record your life story so that your experiences are not lost but will be left for future generations and given to you as a written record. We also offer life story group sessions as part of our online offer, where you can take part in sharing your story with others as part of an interactive discussion via zoom.
51 Questions is a great a way to help you and your family discuss and create your own life story, using cards and answering questions together.

Faith believes that everyone has a creative side and she is passionate about unleashing the creative potential in every individual and finding the right way for the right person despite any physical limitations. Most of all, Faith wants people to have fun and to have the space to be able to unleash their creative side.
An interactive experience for both the patient and their loved ones which creates a long-lasting personal keepsake.
