Our Impact

Impact & Insights

We’re driving change in three key areas: 

  • Access: Greater equity of access to creativity  
  • Health & Wellbeing: Reduced health inequalities 
  • Education: Improved skills, knowledge and aspirations  

As a result, our beneficiaries:

  • report a decrease in loneliness
  • experience improved wellbeing
  • have increased confidence

We continually bring together evidence and data to demonstrate the quality of our work and the importance of creativity in achieving these outcomes. 

Read our published reports, watch videos, review articles and see what a difference the arts can make.
