Donegal County Council and Derry City & Strabane District Council applied for Strand B funding to provide Creative Engagement with Older People in Care Homes in both local authorities.

We proposed that over the summer/autumn of 2023, artists and/or other creatives would be commissioned to work with six cross border Residential Healthcare Facilities in both Co. Donegal and Derry City and Strabane District Council local authorities on at least three occasions, culminating in a finished art/craft piece at the final session. We wanted to bring opportunities for creativity and artistic engagement to care home residents.

Please note that the details of events listed above are provided by the relevant Local Authorities.
