Get creative

We all remember the fun and joy of expressing ourselves creatively as children. Sadly this pleasure is often lost as we grow up.

Creativity is relaxing and can calm the mind, focussing thoughts away from worry or stress. It can also help lift your mood and give a reason to smile in these challenging times.

There are lots of ways you can get creative – whether it’s painting, drawing, doing a craft, dancing, drama, writing or taking photos – the list is endless.

And there’s no need to worry that you ‘can’t do this or that’. Anyone of any age or ability can get involved. Just have a go.
