Abstract

In recent years there has been growing awareness of the needs of the ageing population in the UK. Dramatherapy is being increasingly used as a creative means of engaging with and supporting older adults, who often experience increased physical frailty, sensory impairment and/or dementia. This article explores a project that took place over a period of four years offering group dramatherapy in different London boroughs. The article covers the aims, setting up and delivery of the project and evaluation methods. Vignettes and case studies highlight specific interventions and responses, and along with outcomes, show the overall benefit of the project to the clients and organisations involved.
