The aim of this project is to help rebuild relationships in care homes that have been damaged by the COVID-19 pandemic. It considers the contribution of co-created arts activities to relational care, which focuses on networks of mutual relationships, in mitigating the damage caused by lockdown.

Care home residents, community partners, artists and academic researchers have come together in workshops held in Bristol, Newcastle, and Norwich, to help build capacity for relational care.

This website documents the workshops and is for all those with an interest in this topic.

This work has been funded by the Newcastle University Economic and Social Research Council Impact Accelerator Account.
