Company in Residence

For 10 weeks in 2024, our team of creatives was based at Green Heys Care Home, where we delivered activities with residents, their loved ones and staff. Whilst there, we created “Winter Wonderland” which toured to 30 care homes in the Liverpool City Region.

This theatrical journey was documented by  students on placement from the Applied Theatre Department from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. We were thrilled that they won the Principal’s Prize for their work with us.

The impact of residents’ health and wellbeing formed part of an Action Research project led by the Faculty of Health & Applied Care at Liverpool John Moores University.

The report is available here. 

A huge thank you to all of our partners for making this happen, and especially to Green Heys staff and residents who have so warmly welcomed us.

Our work was featured on Local UK TV.
