Arts & Crafts

Whether you have dabbled in arts & crafts before, or there’s never been a creative bone in your body, our arts and crafts sessions are free for anyone to get as creative as they see fit. If you would like to become a keen crafter or would rather just watch from the sidelines, you’re more than welcome to do either. Our teams are excited to help out every single step of the way.

Creativity Takes Courage 

In the great words of renowned artist Henri Matisse: “Creativity Takes Courage”. Taking the step to move into a residential home is a big one indeed; one that we here at Bothwell Castle Care Home would say takes a lot of courage indeed. So, encouraging our residents to start using art and crafts to channel anything they can think of or might be feeling is a fantastic way to both engage and entertain our residents and their loved ones. 

Whether you’ve never even lifted a paintbrush, or you know exactly what you’re doing when it comes to creating a masterpiece, there’s something for everyone at our regularly scheduled arts and crafts sessions.  Typically, we will have a theme and aim in mind for our sessions, such as making flower arrangements or greeting cards. We also make sure that our creating activities are appropriate for people of all ages, so you can have the opportunity to have fun with your children and grandchildren.

What You’ll Find at Bothwell Castle Care Home

All of our facilities have been designed with our lovely residents in mind, not to mention their incredible friends and families. We always want our residents to feel like they’ve found their new home away from home while staying with us at Bothwell Castle Care Home, which is why we always encourage them to follow their passions and continue doing what they love to do. At our home, all of our activities and facilities have been designed in a manner that makes them fully accessible to each and every one of our residents, and we’re happy to provide excellent levels of social, physical and psychological stimuli.

Unleash Your Inner Monet 

Knowing what kind of projects our residents like to take part in is essential to making sure they’re getting the very best level of care from our teams. Just recently, our lovely residents took part in a Disney celebration day, where everyone got together to create a Disney-themed collage before being visited by the Disney Princesses and Mickey Mouse himself. Whether we decide to do our arts and crafts outside in the summer, or indoors in the winter, Bothwell Castle Care Home is the perfect place to let your creativity run free.

High Quality Care, No Matter What
