SHAPER

World’s largest study into impact of arts on physical and mental health

                    

We are delighted to have been selected as one of three Arts-in-Health organisations whose work will be the focus of a Wellcome Foundation research project designed to research the effectiveness of their projects.   Led by King’s College London, SHAPER: Scaling-up Health-Arts Programmes: Implementation and Effectiveness Research, will see arts interventions from Rosetta Life/Stroke Odysseys, Breathe Arts Research and Dance for Parkinson’s  embedded into NHS hospitals, clinics and in the community so that we can assess their effectiveness in improving the health and wellbeing of greater numbers of patients.
