Creative Connects

The project addresses an increase of stress and anxiety within our undergraduate students at LCC.

We designed and led initial playful and creative workshops for our undergraduate students. What we are doing is fundamentally different from art therapy as wanted to look at how creative practice can help manage problems around anxiety and stress for all students.

Our findings from these initial workshops was that students identified they are being judged and marked against each other and this creates stress and anxiety, which was making them feel lonely and isolated.

As a result we developed prosocial workshops.
