Objects of Comfort
Amgueddfa Cymru Museum Wales
The Objects of Comfort social media campaign has invited people to respond to items from the Museum’s online collection and to share their own objects – the things that bring solace, that evoke memories, or help improve their mood or wellbeing during times of stress and hardship.
With the help of partners we are launching a new museum resource for care and group settings.
Our Objects of Comfort aim for the future is to give every care home in Wales the skills and materials to deliver activities based around Amgueddfa Cymru’s collections. If you would like to get involved and be part of this exciting project, please get in touch!
See some of the activities below, on the following themes:
Holidays
The Robin
Tea
Teddy
Seashore
Music
Pride and Protest
Also, some ‘Talking Points’ that might help you to get a conversation started.
New themes to be added every few weeks.
