Embroidering a heart

Testimonials

This activity was designed by a student nurse who is also a textile artist. It has yet to be trialled in a Creative Toolkit workshop, but we would love some guinea pigs who are willing to offer feedback on this activity and whether/how it helped them decompress.

What it is, what you need, and what you do
