About the Creative Health Review
The National Centre for Creative Health and the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Arts, Health and Wellbeing launched a Creative Health Review on 13th October 2022 and held a series of themed roundtables between Autumn 2022 and Spring 2023.
The Creative Health Review highlights the potential for creative health to help tackle pressing issues in health, social care and more widely, including health inequalities and recovery from COVID-19. It demonstrates that creativity is not just a nice to have, but fundamental to individuals, communities and systems.It supports people to live well for longer, reducing the pressure on health and social care systems and contributing to a healthy and prosperous society.
The Review makes recommendations to Government and Metro Mayors for a cross-departmental strategy on creative health, which will support creative health to flourish and maximise its potential across key policy areas.
Building on the findings of the 2017 APPG on Arts, Health and Wellbeing Inquiry Report ‘Creative Health’, this timely Review gathers evidence and examples of the benefits of creative health in relation to major current challenges:
Mental Health and Wellbeing
Health Inequalities
Creativity in the Education System
Social Care
End of Life Care
The Review sets out what is required to build an equitable, sustainable and scalable creative health infrastructure so that these benefits can be felt by all, addressing:
Cost-effectiveness, Value and Funding Models
Workforce Training and Development
Leadership and Strategy
