We are loving these Camille Roulin portraits created by patients at West Park Hospital NRU in the style of #vangogh - using thick acrylic in an #impasto style. Our oldest artist is 92 and they've made a wonderfully delicate portrait. The power of art to connect is a real thing.

Our Deaf tutor Gary delivered some more introductory BSL (British Sign Language) at West Park Hospital NRU (Neuro Rehabilitation Unit) this week.
He started by recapping on previous sessions and then gently introduced some new vocabulary, for example days of the week and greetings. 🙌🏻🤟🏻
