Creative practitoner wellbeing

research study with edge hill university

Creative Practitioners deliver fantastic work up and down country in settings such as hospitals, community centres, schools, prisons and so many front-line environments. Yet despite their dedication to supporting people through the use of creative arts there is very little research into their wellbeing. As a creative practitioner myself I have seen the stress, burnout and difficulties that can be experienced in this line of work and therefore want to contribute to find out what can be done to support creative practitioners in their practice.

The Research Project

Exploring how we can better support the wellbeing of creative practitioners that work in people-facing settings delivering and/or developing work for places such as schools, hospitals, secure settings and community spaces.
