About Me

I have been writing manuals for leisure staff working in aged care for the last 30 years. My manuals contain ideas on craft, reminiscing programs and games. My books also provide a practical guide to planning and documenting suitable leisure activities for clients in residential and day care facilities. The hard copies of all my books and readers have all been sold but are available now as pdf's so simply email me and resources can be sent to your inbox.

I am now also gving art lessons at the facility near me and the residents are very productive. See their latest pictures! My art as therapy can be done online read more!

During covid art lessons for consumers in aged care using Microsoft teams,Zoom and Skype has worked well for me. The concept is one teacher -many groups. Budget-wise this works you- only pay for one therapist for as many groups that login. Each weekly lesson has intructions, list of materials and handouts emailed ahead.Each lesson has a short art history Power point and all lessons are aged and ability appropriate. For more info please contact me and remember the first trial lesson is free!
