We're proud to be part of the long history of Arts & Health practice in the UK - the APPG on Creative Health is a great way to influence and advocate for us all at national level. We're excited to see the next phase unfold 👏
A new All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Creative Health launched on 26 Nov. Chaired by Dr Simon Opher, MP for Stroud & a longtime supporter of creative health. At its first meeting, the APPG elected Officers & set the agenda for the year ahead.

It’s all about the ‘flow’ … this is such a crucial part of how creativity supports mental health and wellbeing.
That special place we find in ourselves when we’re being creative
