What we do Art therapy referrals Creative Arts therapy referrals Our referrals We work with children between the ages of 4 and 13 years who may be experiencing social, emotional or behavioural difficulties. Many children come referred through local schools but we also accept referrals from children's services and other agencies working with children and families.
