Creative workshops to boost participation in mental health
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether creative workshops using a special tool called MaKey MaKey (a simple circuit board that turns everyday objects into computer keys) can help people with mental health conditions feel more engaged and involved. Researchers want to see if designing things together as a group can promote participation and well-being.
