Local mental health charity Studio Upstairs has been running a new Creative Carers’ group in Croydon, funded by Croydon Council’s Community Fund and led by qualified professionals. The two hour sessions gave carers the space and time to invest in their well-being and widen their support network.

To celebrate their achievements, Studio Upstairs is holding this special exhibition, showcasing artwork produced by the Creative Carers over a 12 week period.

This is a great opportunity to learn more about what they do, enjoy some art and socialise in the local community. It is also a chance for carers to come along and see if they would like to involved in the next group.

The Creative Carers’ group is a welcoming environment where people can work in a range of artistic media alongside others in a safe, therapeutic setting.
