Resting, Relaxation, Reflection - Wellbeing Toolkit
Created by Psychology MSc student Catherine Watson, artist and illustrator Orla Stevens, and Artlink Central, this toolkit hopes to encourage self-expression, reflection, and representation of your experiences studying and working in healthcare.
It contains a collection of creative exercises for healthcare students and staff to encourage reflective practice, appreciation for holistic interventions, and mental well-being. Exercises can take 10 minutes to over an hour, ranging from creative writing, photography, drawing, collage, and painting.
The Neighbourhood Compass - planning our dementia enabling journey
The Neighbourhood Compass is a four-stage toolkit developed to support communities plan their own dementia enabling journey. By using the Compass, you will better understand what to prioritise for your own neighbourhood as well as selecting the best approach for the process.
The toolkit is flexible, allowing you to create a bespoke solution that suits your area's needs. The content can be accessed online, with supporting resources that can be downloaded and printed.
Creative Wellbeing Pack
This e-book contains documentation and step-by-step creative activities that we used during the Flyway Participatory Project. We hope this eBook will be a useful resource and inspire others to use creative activities to improve and look after our 'wellbeing'.
Creating Conversations Kit
Creating Conversations offers a fun and easy way to help people with dementia interact with others, share personal histories and build relationships - anytime and anywhere. The kist was developed by dementia specialists, with the help of older people with dementia and their carers.
Listen as memories unfold and conversations flow.
