Ep 15
Creativity and Wellbeing Week is a festival led by London Arts and Health and the Culture Health and Wellbeing Alliance and funded by Arts Council England.
This is a special commissioned episode reflecting on the festival week past and present to help understand the value of it to the creative health sector. During the festival this year (May 2024) I spent time listening at online events and interviewed a selection of people representing a range of organisations and perspectives about their work, how and why they get involved, and how they think the festival could evolve.
All my guests were generous with their time, offering unique, thoughtful and insightful conversation about Creativity and Wellbeing Week, and about the power of creativity for our health and wellbeing in different contexts.
Guests and Organisations:
Anna Woolf, London Arts and Health
Professor Kevin Fenton, Public Health London
Sam Beal, Norwich Theatres
Daniela Nofal, Counterpoints Arts
