O tym podcaście
Creative Health Stories is a platform and consultancy led by Laura Bailey and Associates based in Faversham, Kent. We showcase the transformative impact of creativity on health and wellbeing through engaging audio stories, community projects, and workplace initiatives. Our services aim to increase understanding, access and investment in creative health.
In each podcast episode we explore why creativity, art, culture, nature and design are important to public health. Conversations with health professionals, artists, cultural practitioners, academics, policy makers and people with lived experience reveal how creativity supports our general health and wellbeing and chronic, long term conditions.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
