Creative Ageing
Creative Ageing recognises the lifelong potential for creativity and expression. Working in care homes, community settings, and intergenerational spaces, Balbir Singh Dance Company co-creates experiences that honour memory, identity, and vitality. BSDC uses movement, music, and storytelling to spark joy, improve wellbeing, and foster connection – demonstrating that artistry can thrive at any age.
“We value the knowledge and experience of older artists and continue to work with them, sometimes when they are overlooked or lose confidence to find ways of continued engagement in the arts sector.”
