CARERS put on an exhibition of art all made from recycled materials following a series of classes.
The recycled art workshops began in Stockport last September.
Heatons resident and workshop leader Mo Fox teamed up with Signpost, an independent local charity who have been supporting carers tin the borough for over 30 years, in a bid for funding National Lottery through The Arts Council.
Art teacher Mo, 55, from Heaton Moor, who also used to create and sell ceramics, is currently doing a Masters in Fine Art and made the bid as part of her degree.
After they were awarded a grant a group of around 25 carers have been taking part in the weekly classes since.
They have created a range of unique pieces of art using old paper and card materials such as old maps, music books, newspapers, and magazines.
Some of the carers have produced sculptures, mosaics, pieces of origami, weaving, and a range of other techniques.
It culminated in an exhibition at the beautiful Heatons Centre in Heaton Moor which is owned by Signpost at the end of June where the creative carers were able to showcase their work, with a second exhibition at Stockport At Gallery planned for the new year.
