  • 1 Arts, Health and Wellbeing All Party Parliamentary Group
    Arts, Health and Wellbeing All Party Parliamentary Group The Care Act How the arts and culture can contribute to improving the quality of care following the Francis Inquiry Wednesday July 2nd 4-5pm Room C, 1 Parliament St. SW1A 2NE Notes from the meeting Welcome and Introduction by the Rt Hon. Lord Howarth of Newport The subject of the meeting is the Care Act and how the arts can contribute to humanising health care. The Francis Inquiry has driven home the message that bureaucracy and procedures must not suppress imagination and humanity. It has been important in the development of the Care Act. This APPG is focused on how we can influence the guidance for Local Authorities in connection with the Care Act. Sir Robert Francis QC believes the arts have a role to play in delivering better healthcare. The history of arts and health goes back to the asclepeion at Epidaurus, where the theatre was next to, and integral to, the place of healing. In hospitals, functional processes tend to delete humanity and personal dignity. Staff can have their humanity crushed out of them by bureaucratic processes. They are often bleak environments without pictures on the walls, with exceptions such as Chelsea and Westminster. How can staff take pride in such environments, or care about keeping them clean? Although the connection with his Inquiry and the Care Act is primarily about compliance, the ward ‘culture’ can be very limiting. The Care Act emphasises the duty of local authorities to deliver individual wellbeing in relation to personal dignity and participation in work, education, training or recreation, as well as the individual’s contribution to society.

  • Music/Sound Creator
    Vanessa Dominique, Drummer, in rehearsals Photo by Hugo Glendinning MUSIC/SOUND CREATOR RECRUITMENT PACK WHY WE CREATED THIS ROLE - We are looking for a talented Music/Sound Creator to work with us on a variety of performance and learning projects. We recognise there is a widespread lack of diversity across the arts, and our experience of working in the industry is that many people don’t have the advantage of an expensive music education. We want to support the next generation of music creators to have a career in the arts, whatever their life experience. This role has been specifically created for someone who has faced barriers because of their socio-economic background, for example who hasn’t been able to take up opportunities or progress in their studies or professional life due to financial pressures. This role is part of the Weston Jerwood Creative Bursaries programme, and includes a specialist programme of career support. Please read the accompanying information at the end of the document before making an application. If you feel you fit this description, and have the appetite and potential to learn, we would love to hear from you. WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR - This role is designed for someone at the beginning of their career, ideally someone who has left education within two to five years. We recognise that you may have faced barriers to work previously and we welcome applications whatever level of training or experience you are at. We know that talented music-creators will not be the finished product. You may be self-taught or you might feel you need more training and support to take your next step.
