Hello First name / Friend,, It’s the second week of our Carers UK Takeover! We’ve partnered with leading national charity for carers - Carers UK to bring you four fun and accessible creative challenges, designed by their members - we’ll share one every Monday throughout June. Carers UK support, advocate for, champion and connect carers across the UK, so that no one has to care alone. Their key services and vital support provide a lifeline to unpaid carers at a time when they most need it. |
|
We’ve also created a downloadable pack which includes the four challenges ahead of time, and more from Carers UK members on what creativity means to them, to raise awareness of what caring is really like and highlight support that's available. Use and adapt the creative challenge pack for your setting or community, or if you’d like to do them all at once! |

Create a piece of writing or a poem about a day in the life of you. For inspiration, think about three actions or routines you do in a typical day. Your piece of writing could revolve around colours you see, noises you hear, sensations you feel, or the objects in your immediate environment. It could be fact or fiction, a memory or dream, funny or sad, anything goes. |
|
Do you notice anything new, about a day in the life of you, that you didn't before? |

Share your creative response with someone you care about and invite them to join in. Share your responses on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook with hashtags #CarersUK #TheWeeklyChallenge #64MillionArtists |
