Arts Ambassador Training

Date: dec 2020 - March 2021

Group: NHS staff & volunteers

Description: With 4+ years experience delivering arts activities in healthcare settings, the Imperial Health Charity approached me to compile a training program to share the knowledge I have gained with NHS volunteers, nurses and healthcare assistants. I produced a set of videos and worksheets that became the Imperial Charities ‘Arts Ambassador Training’. This program is available online and is helpful for anyone who is looking to run creative activities in healthcare settings.

My advice and guidance includes top tips on how to approach patients, what sorts of materials to use, ‘how to’s’ on collage, colouring and stencilling, and advice on how to adapt your approach to fit the individual needs of patients.

The full training programme can be found here on the Imperial Health Charity website.
