Great to see the findings of a government-commissioned review into the monetary value of the impact the arts and heritage can have on health and wellbeing highlighted in this @guardian article.

“any cuts to arts funding or provision have to be considered a public health risk with individual & societal economic ramifications” @HootMusic agree & trust @KirkleesCouncil cultural strategy will reflect that view. @HuddersfieldUni @HuddersfieldHIP @WYpartnership @MayorOfWY
Fantastic article in the @guardian today by the Health Policy Editor, on a new study undertaken by @DCMS @FrontierEcon & WHO Collaborating Centre @UCL_SBB. "We can value those impacts in terms of reduced costs to the NHS, increased productivity..."
