About us

Art Dementia New Forest is a registered charity. Our aim is to eventually have art groups across the whole New Forest, to which any person with dementia could have access.

The first group to be started was Milford, in 2007, this was followed by Ringwood, in 2008 and then Lymington.

Due to the Covid 19 outbreake a decision was made in 2021 to to move the Ringwood art group to Victoria Rooms, Fordingbridge.

Our team is, Annabel Collenette, who is Chairman and leads the Milford and Lymington workshops; Gilda Newsham is secretary, and leads the Fordingbridge, workshop. Edward Newsham is our treasurer.
