If your school or organisation has been championing creativity to make a positive impact on young lives, this is your chance to shine!

Who can apply?

• We are targeting this opportunity into settings in more deprived communities and where socioeconomic and health inequalities are most prevalent.
• Schools that have been running a creative health project in collaboration with an artist or arts organisation.
• Creative organisations already working within schools.
• We are particularly interested in learning about the outcomes you have achieved, with emphasis on the evidence you have in regards to improving the wellbeing of young people. This means that we want to know about projects that are completed, or have been running for long enough for evidence of impact to have been gathered.
