A day designed to develop the creative health sector in Enfield with Breath Arts Health Research.

Join Breathe Arts Health Research (Breathe) for a day designed to inspire the development of the creative health sector in Enfield as well as seeding the arts and health projects of tomorrow in the borough. Aiming to bring local organisations, healthcare professionals, policy makers and artists together, the training will share expertise and insight on programme design and delivery, best practice, funding, evaluation/research and more.

The morning session will feature an overview of the sector, sharing Breathe’s evidence-based approach to programme design and case studies. The session will explore the key ingredients required to embed creative health safely and sustainably, as well as some of the barriers to implementing this work. The afternoon session will consist of bespoke, interactive workshops, co-designed with local artists to equip them with the practical tools they need to deliver creative health programmes safely and sustainably.
