I love art, it’s creative and varied expressions and the power it has to communicate across all language barriers. West Midlands Care Association was recently approached by community interest company Creative Health, the independent Arts and Health organisation for the Black Country and the West Midlands, with a proposal that thrilled me. Incorporated in February 2009 and formed by the Black Country Arts and Health Commissioning Partnership, the body, along with ourselves and other associations is bidding for an Arts Council grant to challenge the stereotypes of entertainment and activities delivered in care homes. If the application is successful, a wide range of artistic expressions will be presented in residential settings, which according to the grant application will turn “the everyday into the extraordinary.” Want to know more?
