With budget cuts and staff shortages the NHS has never been under more pressure than it is currently. Many of those in our local community, and beyond, struggle to find inclusive, accessible and timely support for their physical and mental health. The communities in which we work need specialist, targeted support which equips and empowers them to take control of their health and wellbeing. Without intervention, many individuals do not receive the support they need and their health declines.

Breathe Arts Health Research delivers creative health programmes co-designed with communities to improve health and wellbeing. Everything we do is underpinned by robust scientific research, meaning we can PROVE it works. We meet people where they are with accessible, inclusive support: Breathe Melodies– singing to support new parents experiencing postnatal depression Breathe Magic– magical therapy for young people with hemiplegia Breathe Harmony– NHS staff choir offering respite and community
