Emma Parkinson

Offering sessions focusing on creativity for wellbeing through collage, mixed media and craft.

Emma is an artist and creative facilitator who leads welcoming collage, mixed media and craft sessions focused on creativity for wellbeing. Her workshops encourage people to slow down, be present and enjoy the process of making, with an emphasis on curiosity, playfulness and self-expression rather than the finished result.

Drawing on her own creative practice and academic training, Emma creates inclusive and engaging sessions that are open to everyone, regardless of experience. She enjoys working with repurposed and recycled materials wherever possible, helping participants discover creative potential in everyday objects.

Emma also has experience delivering creative health sessions for people living with dementia and their carers, and she facilitates a monthly Memory Café. Through her work she aims to create relaxed, supportive spaces where creativity can bring people together, spark conversation and support wellbeing.
