Extra Time Goals

With thanks to National Lottery players

Suffolk Artlink runs community arts projects designed to help people be creative, make connections and live well.

Extra Time does just that by bringing school children together with residents in care homes and independent living units to share their experiences, interests, skills and talents.

Guided by professional artists, the participants explore new ideas, learn a little about each other and create beautiful new art works to express what they’ve discovered; this work is celebrated and shared through exhibitions, websites and other social media platforms.

So it was that children from the Edgar Sewter Primary School connected with residents at Beech House Residential Care Home in an active, purposeful way.

They reflected on and shared their unique experiences, interests and skills, learned about their local footballing heritage, and gave each other their time and companionship.

It’s been a fabulous season for Extra Time, and we would like to thank everyone involved in making it such a success, particularly all those at
the Halesworth and District Museum, the magnificent team at Beech House and staff at the Edgar Sewter; thank you for your enthusiasm, support and kindness—and for making it such a joy.

And to the Beech House Bakers and the Super Sewter Dudes, huge congratulations to you all for the marvellous work you’ve made and the fun we’ve had together; I hope you enjoy this very special Extra Time Souvenir Programme.
