Louise Bardgett

Open Arms Collective Co-founder

Louise is co-founder of Open Arms Artists’ Collective and manage the Creative Age programme in Cheltenham and Tewkesbury. She trained in movement and dance, and enjoy blending art forms and collaborating with different artists. She is interested in using movement to find new ways to express and communicate with one another when cognitive behaviours fail us, and in particular working non-verbally and in the moment.

"What I love about Creative Age is seeing the positive impacts on health – exercising body & mind, the sense of enjoyment, playfulness and fun. Moving together allows us to connect, create and share., valuing each person as an individual as well as a whole group", Louise Bardgett.

The Tewkesbury Creative Age sessions are supported by Louise and Megan at The Roses and hosted by a range of artists who have developed their artistic practice to work with people with Dementia and their carers.

She has worked as a Dance Development Worker and Creative Education Manager across the North West, East and West Midlands before settling in Gloucestershire. Louise was involved in the Courtyard Theatre’s Creative Ageing programme from which Open Arms was founded. When she is not involved in Open Arms, she work as a Programme Manager withCreate Gloucestershire.
