We welcome referrals to our community programme for anyone living with a diagnosis of dementia or undergoing assessment, interested in connecting socially and open to exploring their creative instincts using the arts. No arts experience is necessary to join our community!

We accept self-referrals alongside referrals from local Dementia Advisors, GP surgeries, Link Workers, the Memory Service and other local organisations.

All participants will receive an initial telephone or home-based welcome call, and we will discuss with the participant their interests and hobbies, supporting them in deciding what other activities they may like to engage with. They will then be supported through one, or more of our three programmes as below:


Resonate Now
We offer regular ‘keep in touch calls’ alongside ‘Resonate Now’ - an engaging update in the post each month, filled with creative ideas and activities to be enjoyed at home, and news of projects and social events as social distancing allows. We regularly review the participants interests and needs to see if they would like to engage with our other programmes.
 

Creative Befrienders
We will match the participant with a volunteer artist and together they will share stories and interests and explore a range of arts activity, including support to enjoy Resonate Now. This is offered via telephone, video call, letter and in-person once lockdown restrictions have eased.
 

Arts projects and events
Offering wider social opportunities alongside connections with music, opera, visual arts and museums. These are offered both digitally and non-digitally. Participants can choose to simply watch or listen, or take a more active role if they wish.

New referrals during lockdown, shielding and social distancing
All participants referred to Resonate Arts during the Coronavirus restrictions should meet the following criteria:
  • Have access to a working telephone.
  • Be able to communicate comfortably on the telephone in English.
  • Be able to read English, or have support in doing so.

We are committed to Covid-19 safe practice for our participants, employees, volunteers and artists.

Contact us for more information, or to request a referral form.
