Conversational Playing Cards
These can be used as a way of encouraging and starting meaningful conversations (or simply as a game of cards). These can be used by both staff and residents and may be particularly useful in helping people to open up and get to know each other at a time where anxieties may be high and positive relationships will be particularly important.
Thinklets
Members of the Learning Together Network have created ThinkLets to help us all keep connected. Each ThinkLet contains resources that will help us to think about new ideas and develop new skills together, even from afar.
