On the board of a cultural organisation?

We know board members are often short of time, so our Board Environmental Champions programme is designed to be light-touch & flexible, offering access to self-paced online training & guidance >> https://t.co/ERLVR6crbI

Are you a professional supporting people with disordered eating? Would you like to share your views on how nature can support this population in a focus group to help design a intervention?

Please consider participating in my study and share widely within your networks🌿🌳🍃

Another session @ChelwestFT @cwpluscharity performing on the children’s wards. We also spoke to children about ideas for our new dances. One boy was doing some origami by his bed & he helped us create hand gestures about folding #cocreation #cwplus #danceinhospitals

New publication 🎉 with Dr Jamie Bird and Lor Bird. A timely and important paper that evaluates the role of social action art therapy and art-based research to improve collective political imagination for socially just adaptations to climate crisis. https://t.co/CnRPDT6Vmx

@Katey_W @ECREDementia @scottishballet @DanceBase @PilarLetrondo I've signed up. Sounds great. I'm currently incorporating dance into a creative arts research project for people with young onset dementia. I'm a member of the AHRC funded Creative Dementia Research Group, it would be great to exchange learning.
