Organisations of Hope Symposium at The Manchester Museum

Join Creative Manchester for a one-day symposium exploring creative health in Greater Manchester. This event will begin with a welcome address from Honorary Chair in Creative Writing and former University Chancellor Lemn Sissay, followed by reflections from project partners, research briefings and best practice showcases from the Organisations of Hope research project.

This 9-month UKRI-AHRC research initiative has been mapping creative health across Greater Manchester and working with key partners to explore how creative health is accessed and understood in communities and how it can be better supported in the broader health and social care landscape.

Project partners include Kings College London, Greater Manchester NHS, 42nd Street, Dementia United, Action Together and Cartwheel Arts.
