A short clip from a show at Stokeleigh Care Home in Bristol — not the whole show, just a few moments of what the room is like.
Set up and ready at Moreton Hill, before residents came in. That’s the whole footprint — a banner, a mat, and our own wet floor signs at one end of the lounge.
We’re entertainers, not clinicians, so here’s what actually happens in the room rather than a list of medical claims:
Most homes pay for us out of the activities budget, and by autumn it’s usually spent. Three other routes exist, and most activities coordinators don’t know about all of them.
Many homes hold one and few spend it. It exists for exactly this, and it needs a decision rather than an application.
If your home has a constituted group, it can apply to National Lottery Awards for All — grants from £300 to £20,000, with a decision in around 16 weeks. The home itself usually can’t apply; the Friends group can.
Arts Council England’s National Lottery Project Grants start at £1,000, are open all year, and are available to individual creative practitioners as well as organisations. It’s a route we’re looking into for a run of sensory sessions across several homes.
If you’re putting something in front of a funder or a manager, we’ll send you a costed quote, our insurance and DBS details, our risk assessment, an outline of what a session involves, and photographs and comments from previous visits. Ask and it’s yours.
We can’t promise anyone the money — but a lot of homes assume there’s nothing available and never ask.
Two to three metres at one end of the lounge or dining room, with residents facing us. We don’t need power, staging or any particular flooring.
Thirty minutes as standard. You can book half an hour, an hour, two or three — whatever suits your day.
Yes, and it’s often where the response is strongest. There are no instructions to follow and nothing to get wrong — it’s watching something beautiful happen.
Book a longer session and tell us when you enquire, and we’ll build in time to visit them afterwards.
Most homes have us indoors. Outdoors works too if your residents are comfortable outside — it needs different equipment, so it’s something to arrange in advance rather than decide on the day.
We work in one spot, so the only damp is immediately around us. We bring our own mat and put out our own wet floor signs — you’ll see them in the photograph above. The solution is non-toxic.
Yes — public liability insurance, a DBS check, and a written risk assessment we can send ahead of the visit for your records. Our risk assessments are on the site if you’d like to read them first.
Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds as standard, and regularly into Bristol, Worcestershire and Herefordshire. Further afield is possible — there’s a travel charge for the longer journeys, and it will be in the quote before you commit to anything.
Yes, and homes that do tend to get more from it — residents start recognising us. Tell us how many visits you have in mind and we’ll price it as a block.
Tell us your date and roughly how many residents, and we’ll come back with a price and whether we’re free.
