Yealm Artists 4 Dementia

October 2021 saw the opening of our first fundraising online art exhibition and sale of work

THANKS TO 17 LOCAL ARTISTS WHO RAISED £734 TOWARDS OUR CHARITY’S FUNDS

Whilst it’s well known that singing is one of the great joys of people living with dementia, creating art is also a powerful form of communication.

As a charity we run an Arts and Crafts Group in Yealmpton and we are lucky to have several talented artists amongst our numbers. They persuaded artist friends and colleagues from all five parishes that we cover to join them in this fundraising exhibition.

Although the online gallery is now closed we’ve left images of the art they exhibited for you to admire

Thank you for supporting our charity. Becoming dementia friendly communities and encouraging others to follow suit, is making an enormous difference to people’s lives here in Devon.
