Seasons project
We are currently exploring the different seasons using visual collections and all the senses to promote discussion and reminiscence as well as to reinforce a sense of wellbeing in the vulnerable groups we work with.

Our Seasons workshops are tailored for different groups across the year. These are organised onsite at The National Archives or in different care settings within the London area.
So far, they have included people living with dementia or with mental ill health and with adults and children with learning difficulties. We are learning how enjoyable and valuable these sensory workshops can be for a wide range of vulnerable groups.
