research, and enhance patient and staff wellbeing. Using our expertise in partnership

an evolving NHS.

We are proud pioneers in the field of Arts in Health. Built in 1993, Chelsea and Westminster

We are proud pioneers in the field of Arts in Health. Built in 1993, Chelsea and Westminster
Hospital was the first hospital in the UK to lay an arts and design manifesto as part of its
build plans, briefing architects to include art works in public and clinical areas, and having an
acquisitions and commissioning policy from its inception.

About the CW+ Arts in Health programme

Our pioneering Arts in Health programme focuses on the link between human health and
the environment, building on the robust body of evidence that outstanding design and
engagement with the arts can improve physical and mental wellbeing. We hold a collection
of more than 2,000 works of art and digital installations, many of which are on display
around our hospitals for all to enjoy. And our Arts for All programme brings daily music,
performance and creative activities into the wards, using art as a tool for healing.

Drawing on 30 years of expertise, we create environments that encourage patient recovery
and support staff in delivering the best possible care. Our Design and Environment
programme works with renowned partners who specialise in health, technology and
environmental design, to address the factors which create the optimum healing
environment. These include temperature, lighting, acoustics, air quality, closeness to nature,
wayfinding, privacy and the arts and technology.

Underpinning all of our work is an objective to grow a robust body of evidence that clearly
demonstrates the impact on patient outcomes, care delivery and cost effectiveness of these
programmes and enhancements.

Becoming a Collection Management Volunteer

An exciting opportunity to support the art collection curation and management has arisen,
and we are looking for an individual with an interest in arts in health, collection
