Headway have been working closely with Lucy over the past few years following our success in achieving the Artist in Community Scheme Research and Development and Project Realisation Awards with Create Ireland, Creative Communities Cork City Fund and HSE project based funding. Lucy's vision for how creativity can support our client's physical and mental wellbeing has rooted the arts and health model firmly in our service delivery.
Through her creative and weaving workshops, we have watched our clients grow in confidence and creative thinking, being increasingly able to imagine a brighter future. The atmosphere on the days of weaving is full of positivity and a special collaborative bond has formed amongst the group. Her enthusiasm and dedication towards each client's need for self expression is interwoven with a depth of presence and care that allows each group member to be seen, heard and understood.
