Feedback & Testimonials.

“The Arts & Health Hub team have years of experience listening carefully to the needs of creative practitioners. They understand practitioner support through having facilitated and evaluated it in many formats, from peer support groups to clinical supervision. They are well qualified to translate this experience for organisations committed to delivering safe and supportive arts and health programmes.” — Julia Puebla Fortier (doctoral researcher focusing on practitioner care)

“Daniel was a fantastic facilitator - great pace, collaborative style and friendly whilst also professional. A quickly established safe environment in which to share and discuss ideas. A clear structure across the days that culminated in personalised action points and take-aways.” — Anna Linch, National Portrait Gallery (April 2022)

“This is one of the best training programmes I've attended - I took away tons of helpful ideas and am already implementing them in our strategy and policies. ” — Clare Hankinson, Fabrica

“Extremely helpful sessions which will have a real impact on how our organisation supports artists. The action-led approach was particularly helpful and encouraged full engagement and knowledge sharing between our organisations and experiences.” — Training Participant (April 2022)

“I am collaborating with four other organisations here in Cambridge in the arts and heath sector. We are wanting to explore ideas of ‘mutual support’ for the network of freelance creative practitioners we all work with and invited Arts & Health Hub to run a workshop for us all. In just three hours he helped us share ideas of what good practice looks like for everyone there and talk about the different mechanisms of support that are possible and his report from the session has gone on to stimulate future plans for this work in 2022. Working with an external facilitator in this way has allowed us to relax into the process and find time and space to be open and honest with each other.” — Ruth Sapsed, Cambridge Curiosity and Imagination

"Following some informal conversations with other local arts and health leaders around how we can work together to better support our teams (including our freelance artists), Arts & Health Hub seemed the obvious choice to help us progress our thinking! The Hub’s experience and enthusiasm was just what we needed to kick start an exploration of what 'support' can mean for different people at different times and how we could move our thinking into action. The workshop the Hub facilitated brought together five Cambridge-based arts and health organisations, involving charity leaders, programme managers and artists (many of whom work across several of the organisations). We are now developing a shared pledge on mutual support, which we view as fluid and evolving and are looking forward to continuing the collective conversations over the coming months and years." — Dr Emily Bradfield, Charity Director, Arts and Minds
