Find out how East London NHS Foundation Trust (ELFT) is maximising the potential of the Arts to empower our service users, staff and communities. We will demonstrate an interactive session using singing and song-writing in the style of one of our #ELFTin1Voice projects. Giving space and permission for creativity and play is one of our keys to helping build a culture of collaboration, co-production, challenge and compassion.

Join us to experience what it’s like working in this creative and open environment and have some fun in the process!

After this experiential session, participants will be able to:

• Feel and experience the benefits of what the arts have to offer healthcare improvement


• Know more about how to find arts partners to help them expand their creative approaches to improvement


• Take home the energy of the arts and expand their use in their own setting to build joy at work
