Resources from our 'Communities of Practice Forum: Exploring Older Men’s Participation in arts & wellbeing Services' meetings

Our ‘Communities of Practice Forum: Exploring Older Men’s Participation in arts & wellbeing Services’ sessions offer an informal space for arts & wellbeing providers to meet, share ideas and develop their practice around supporting and working alongside older men in their services. Sessions are facilitated in partnership with specialist practitioners and organisations, including Tony Cealy, and Celebrating Age Wiltshire’s Creative Conversations groups.

We meet twice a year and anyone who is interested in developing their practice around supporting and working alongside older men in arts and wellbeing is very welcome to join.

Here are some of the links and resources that have been shared during our Forum meetings:
