Creativity and Wellbeing Week (C&WW) is back, and this year we are engaging with diverse practitioners, sector leaders, and regional organisations to spotlight the incredible impact of the creative health sector across the country!
Led by the Culture, Health and Wellbeing Alliance (CHWA) and London Arts and Health, the theme of this year is, New Horizons, and we're encouraging curiosity and listening within the Creative Health sector.
We are excited to engage with community organisations, practitioners, and participants across the country to understand their approach to and experience of creative health practices while asking the key question of the challenges of sustaining such work and impact.
As we live in times of crises of individual, communal, and ecological health, we are compelled to act in radical ways that will transform our and the planet’s survival. Creative health, therefore, not only enables us to thrive but also is a political act of resistance.
If you're an artist, creative health practitioner, or run an organisation - we would love to hear about your work. We are spotlighting stories, events, and blogs on your practice, so write to us at [email protected] to participate or, submit your content directly onto the Creativity and Wellbeing website.
You can use Creativity and Wellbeing Week assets to design social media campaigns for your events to promote participation and engagement. Here, you will find the festival assets. Do use the hashtag #creativityandwellbeing and CHWA and LAH across your favourite social platforms for reshares.

Our provocation for last year’s Creativity and Wellbeing Week was ‘What is the role of creativity in a health crisis?’- a provocation that was urgent and necessary to consider for all of us who have a stake in supporting people’s health and wellbeing, inside and outside the clinic.
