This prospectus produced jointly by the Department of Health and Arts
Council England celebrates and promotes the benefits of the arts in
improving everyone’s wellbeing, health and healthcare, and its role in
supporting those who work in and with the National Health Service.
The
prospectus shows that the arts can, and do, make a major contribution to
key health and wider community issues. This publication stems from the
recommendations of the Review of Arts and Health Working Group,
commissioned by the Department of Health.
