Stratford & Nuneaton Escape offer weekly community arts projects supporting wellbeing, led by professional Artist and by trained Link Coordinator staff, who are waiting to welcome everyone. It's a real opportunity to 'escape', to refocus and build confidence. It also provides exciting opportunities to get involved in the wider community and we know that creating together leads to lifelong friendships
'It’s great to have a couple of hours creativity and be with such lovely people. I do struggle with low mood, moderate depression and, more recently, anxiety due to a series of biggish life changes. I’m working on building up resilience and these sessions really help'.

Our Arts Award programme provides a peer-led creative framework enabling young people to find their voice, build resilience and change their lives. Through the Arts Award young people harness creativity to demonstrate the power of the arts on improving health, enabling them to explore and to respond to things that are important to them, driving local action for change in their communities.
