pARTners is an art group based in North Shields which supports people with Dementia.
As a social enterprise business it is important to my business to support organisations who support the community. This group provides such a valuable resource not just to the person with dementia but also to their carers.
The art works produced are uplifting and inspirational, so pop the dates in your diary and come and see their exhibition.

Deb Cooper is a mixed media textile artist and maker from the NorthEast of England.
Drawn to natural forms, & the beautiful way nature and time ages things. Line, flow & texture, always return as the main themes within her work.
Considering the impact of waste and over production Deb regularly uses recycled fibres, found objects and vintage textiles to extend their use.
Many of the repurposed fibres have also been dyed with plant materials and rusty objects, often found, or grown on her allotment giving her work a subtle colour pallet.
Deb is a proud member of the Society for Embroidered Works (S.E.W.) who promote that “Stitched Art is Art”.
