Beyond Culture Box: using creative practice to support people living with dementia, staff, and family supporters

超越文化盒子将扩大和加强文化盒子(CB)应对流行病项目的影响。“文化盒子”利用互动创意资源，减轻了流行病对疗养院痴呆症患者的一些负面影响，特别是社会孤独率和孤独率。文化盒子产生了大量委托和共同设计的创意资源，这些资源尚未得到充分利用，Beyond Culture Box将使用这些资源来支持不同的社区，这些社区没有参与最初的研究。Beyond Culture Box将通过使用项目结果和创建的材料来实现这一点，该项目旨在开展培训活动和展览，以改善痴呆症护理并接触到新的受众。这些将通过一系列参与性的利益攸关方讲习班来制定。Beyond Culture Box利益攸关方研讨会将促进与一系列非学术利益攸关方的知识交流，包括黑人和亚裔少数族裔(BAME)社区团体、护理人员、艺术和遗产组织、有痴呆症生活经历的人及其支持者，以及创意实践者。为了最大限度地提高这些研讨会的成功，团队将与项目合作伙伴密切合作：Arts4痴呆症、艺术和文化埃克塞特、比尔·道格拉斯电影博物馆，以及我们的分包商文化和NAPA。研讨会将是参与性的，并以CB的研究成果和资源为指导，同时也向有生活经验或其他专业知识的参与者学习，例如通过为痴呆症患者提供培训和支持创意活动。Beyond文化盒讲习班将为两项主要成果提供信息：1.为护理人员和其他利益攸关方(例如家庭支持者)举办培训课程。这将解决为护理人员、艺术家和家庭支持者提供艺术培训的必要性，以建立他们在使用基于证据的创作材料方面的信心和技能，以帮助患有痴呆症的老年人。课程将与巡回展同时进行，巡回展由我们的分包商NAPA运营，并与Arts4Demens合作。每个展览的举办地(特伦特的埃克塞特和斯托克郡)将举办两场活动，并提供混合选项，以确保无障碍。Beyond Culture Box团队将与国家适应行动方案和Arts4痴呆症密切合作，学习他们在提供培训方面的专业知识，以确保该产品对广泛的受众是相关和有用的。2.多媒体展览：《文化盒子生活》。展览将利用利益攸关方讲习班设计的引人入胜的互动展示，展示社区发展项目的成果。展览将在英格兰不同地区巡回演出2个交通便利和对比鲜明的场馆，以确保该项目接触到新的观众，地点是埃克塞特的正光项目和特伦特河畔斯托克的米切尔艺术中心。我们将与合作伙伴比尔·道格拉斯电影博物馆合作，将他们的一些资源纳入其中，包括他们与当地埃克塞特组织合作开发“记忆盒”的工作。此外，我们与艺术和文化埃克塞特和文化&的合作将促进广泛和多样化的出席，包括来自BAME社区的出席。Beyond Culture Box将被记录在最终报告和练习文件中，并将在项目合作者的支持下广泛传播。

Beyond Culture Box will extend and enhance the impact of the Culture Box (CB) pandemic-responsive project. Culture Box used interactive creative resources to alleviate some of the negative impacts of the pandemic on people living with dementia in care homes, particularly rates of social isolation and loneliness. Culture Box resulted in a wide array of commissioned and co-designed creative resources that have not been fully utilised and that Beyond Culture Box will use to support diverse communities who were not involved in the original study. Beyond Culture Box will achieve this by using the project findings and materials created to develop training activities and exhibitions that improve dementia care and reach new audiences. These will be developed via a series of participatory stakeholder workshops. The Beyond Culture Box stakeholder workshops will facilitate knowledge exchange with a range of non-academic stakeholders, including Black and Asian Minority Ethnic (BAME) community groups, care staff, arts and heritage organisations, people with lived experience of dementia and their supporters, and creative practitioners. To maximise the success of these workshops, the team will work closely with project partners: Arts4Dementia, Arts and Culture Exeter, and The Bill Douglas Cinema Museum, and our subcontractors Culture& and NAPA.The workshops will be participative and guided by the CB research findings and resources, whilst also learning from participants with lived experience or other expertise e.g. via delivering training and supporting creative events for those with dementia. The Beyond Culture Box workshops will inform 2 key outputs:1. A training course for care staff and other stakeholders (e.g. family supporters). This will address the need for arts training provision for care staff, artists, and family supporters to build their confidence and skills in using evidence-based creative materials with older people with dementia. The course will take place alongside the touring exhibition, run by our sub-contractors NAPA and in partnership with Arts4Dementia. There will be 2 events in the locations where each exhibition will be hosted (Exeter and Stoke on Trent) with a hybrid option available to ensure accessibility. The Beyond Culture Box team will work closely with NAPA and Arts4Dementia to learn from their expertise in providing training to ensure that the offer is relevant and useful for a wide audience. 2. A multi-media exhibition: 'Culture Box Live'. The exhibition will showcase the outcomes of the CB project using engaging and interactive displays, devised in the stakeholder workshops. The exhibition will tour 2 accessible and contrasting venues in different parts of England to ensure the project reaches new audiences, the locations are Positive Light Projects in Exeter and Mitchell Arts Centre in Stoke-on-Trent. We will collaborate with partner The Bill Douglas Cinema Museum to include some of their resources, including their work on the "memory box" in collaboration with local Exeter organisations. Alongside this, our collaboration with Arts and Culture Exeter and Culture& will facilitate wide and diverse attendance, including those from BAME communities. Beyond Culture Box will be documented in a final report and practice paper that will be widely disseminated, supported by the project collaborators.
