This document discusses using arts and culture to improve public health and wellbeing outcomes. It provides an overview of Public Health England, which aims to protect and improve public health. It notes challenges like health inequality gaps and discusses how a culture of health and creative commissioning of arts activities can help address these challenges. Evidence shows arts activities can benefit mental health, dementia, physical activity, and wellbeing. The document encourages commissioners and arts providers to work together to develop sustainable approaches to using arts for health.

All Our Health - A Call to Action to All Healthcare ProfessionalsViv Bennett
A Public Health England programme - All Our Health is a call to action for all healthcare professionals, individually and collectively, to close the health and wellbeing gap,
contribute to a radical upgrade in prevention and public health and develop a social movement for health
A health system, also sometimes referred to as health care system, is the organization of people, institutions, and resources that deliver health care services to meet the health needs of target populations.
Health systems are responsible for delivering services that improve, maintain or restore the health of individuals and their communities.
Common elements in virtually all health systems are primary healthcare and public health measures.

We are lucky to be joined by City and Hackney Healthier Fund, East End Community Foundation, Lloyds Foundation and Social Investment Business for an interactive session on their funding priorities and support available for voluntary and community groups.
Healthier Hackney Fund - In October 2017, the Council and City and Hackney Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) launched the healthier City and Hackney grant fund for 2018/19.
This new fund brought together two former grant funds, the CCG innovation fund and Hackney Council's healthier Hackney fund, to provide a scheme to make grants to help us achieve our joint health and wellbeing aims for communities in the City of London and Hackney.
East End Community Foundation connects business and individuals with the grassroots organisations that are making a difference to lives here in our neighbourhood: London's East End. Last year we awarded grants of £1million!
Lloyds Foundation make grants every year to hundreds of small and local charities, investing in their work helping people overcome complex social issues across England and Wales. Lloyds Foundation provide long-term funding for charities with a proven track record of helping people achieve positive change through deep, person centred and holistic support. We understand that sometimes the most life-changing charities may not always look perfect on paper, and we’re not afraid to take risks where we see great potential.
Social Investment Business: call for proposals
Social Investment Business (SIB) announces a fund co-design opportunity for charities and social enterprises in the East London area interested in receiving finance and business support. This is an opportunity for you to input into the design of a new initiative - the East London Impact Fund (ELIF).
Initially SIB are looking to champion five causes which will provide successful CSEs with the first opportunity to pitch for support/investment, whilst allowing SIB to learn first hand from working with you. Following on from this, SIB aim to then revise and adapt its thinking to develop a new Fund based on the needs and solutions identified by you, allowing social investment to be better used to unlock economic and social inclusion for disadvantaged communities. The Fund will ensure it commits resources to supporting organisations that serve the social needs of these communities.

The Wessex Health Partners (WHP) strategic alliance has brought together partners from across Dorset, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight to explore how research and innovation (R&I) can improve population health.
The event, which was a first of its kind for Wessex, saw health and care and R&I leaders gather to discuss the key challenges and priorities for the region, and explore opportunities to address them through increased collaboration and partnership working.
More than 100 people attended the event, which took place at Southampton Science Park on Friday 15 March.
Bristol - building a truly healthy city, pop up uni, 12.00, 3 september 2015NHS England
Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

A panel discussion considering what the future hold for charities and their governance, and how trustees can support their charities to survive and thrive.
Here we share our progress on updating the Charity Governance Code. Hear from the Code steering group about changes that are being made to the Diversity and Integrity principles following its refresh.
The panel will share some of the proposed changes to the Integrity principle, offering a preview of the updates. They will also reflect on findings from engagement and the extended consultation on enhancements to the Diversity principle. This will be an opportunity for the steering group to share their learning, having listened to a range of experiences. It is also an opportunity to discuss best practice which has been identified through the revision work. Finally, the group will offer an update on next steps on the Code's revision.
We’ve put together this video guide to using the governance wheel to carry out a board effectiveness review. It will be most useful for trustees or staff who are undertaking a board review for their own charity and want to know how best to use the governance wheel to support them in this.
As the charity sector continues to manage the impact of the pandemic, many charities are facing financial uncertainty. In this context many senior leaders, to ensure their charity’s sustainability, will be considering collaboration and merger. In this webinar, in association with Bates Wells, we aim to answer questions such as: When should a charity in crisis consider merging? What are the alternatives? How can you make the best decision for your organisation? You will also hear about a new online decision-making tool which will help organisations chart the options open to them in a tight financial spot.
Normal working practices have changed dramatically in a very short period. Most staff are still working remotely, and many organisations have made use of the furlough scheme. This has meant organisations are having to manage and support staff remotely; review some existing policies to ensure they are still fit for purpose; and manage with a reduced and rotating staff capacity. In partnership with our Trusted Supplier Croner, in this webinar we will be sharing good practice on managing and supporting staff in this new environment. We will be joined by Vicky Scott, Operations and HR Manager at Hackney CVS who will share the experiences and learnings of Hackney CVS in this new context.
The economic impact of coronavirus means that many voluntary sector organisations will be going through a period of significant change over the coming months. For many of the hardest hit charities, the process of restructuring and making redundancies will sadly be inevitable. In this webinar we help organisations prepare for this context.
Entering a new phase of the Covid-19 pandemic, with the option of returning to your workplace, has legal and practical implications for all charities. Employers need to be clear about what they are required to do to ensure the health and safety of their staff and volunteers. Employers are having to consider questions such as: what reasonable adjustments should employers make for their workforce in returning to a ‘new normal?’ How can we prepare for what lies ahead? In partnership with TrustLaw, in this webinar we aim to answer these questions. We will be joined by Sarah Valentine, Senior Associate at Eversheds Sutherland and Andrew New, Head of Education at St John Ambulance.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.
The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services.

“Public Health England (PHE) is the expert national
public health agency which fulfils the Secretary of State for
Health’s statutory duty to protect health and address
inequalities, and executes his power to promote the health
and wellbeing of the nation.”
Our key roles:
• To protect the public’s health
• To improve the public’s health, reducing health inequalities
• To improve population health through sustainable health and
care services
• To maintain the capability and capacity of public health systemCreative commissioning
5. The challenge
•Addressing the health and
wellbeing gap
•Healthy life expectancies gap
•Increasing burden of preventable disease
•Persistent health inequalities
•Addressing the care and quality gap
•Persistent variations in healthcare
•Addressing the financial gap
•Opportunity costs of not having a
prevention focus
The need for a system wide approach of
communities supported by their NHS,
local authorities and voluntary sectors.
Creative commissioning
8. The National Conversation on
Health Inequalities
• PHE programme of local conversation about health
inequalities, their cause and possible solutions
• There was limited awareness of local assets, for
example, support structures, local services, economic
assets and cultural assets
• Lack of understanding of how these assets could be
used to promote good health outcomes
• Lack of a sense of community and concerns around
social isolation were identified in all areas

9. Why Communities Matter for Health
Creative commissioning
• Community life, social connections, supportive
relationships and having a voice in local
decisions are all factors that underpin good
health and wellbeing
• Entrenched inequalities persist and many
people experience the effects of social exclusion
and lack social support
• Asset based and participatory approaches can
address the marginalisation and powerlessness
caused by entrenched health inequalities
10. Community CentredApproaches
to Health and Wellbeing
• PHE and NHS England have
drawn together evidence and
learning on community centred
approaches

11. Faculty of Public Health
• Essay for the Arts Council – “Create” a journal of
perspectives on the value of art and culture
• Stimulates discussion about the true value of art and
culture to our society
• “Unhealthy people cost the taxpayer much more than
investing in the kinds of activities, facilities and public
environments that help prevent or ameliorate illness”
• With this in mind a range of professionals and local
councils are looking to the arts as a way to address
wellbeing through prevention and community
engagement

12. Art, Culture & Health: Evidence
Strong evidence for clinical art therapies
Growing and strengthening evidence base for
cost-effective interventions delivered by arts

There is a need for a fundamental change in our approach to public health and a 5th wave to public health improvement has been proposed - this focuses on developing a “a culture for health as the fifth wave of public health improvement”
Davies et al Lancet 2014;384 :1889-95
1st wave 1830 -1900 – focus on water, sanitation, civil and social order
2nd wav 1890 -1950 – scientific rationalism -biomedical breakthroughs germ theory - early vaccination, antibiotics
3rd wave 1940 – 1980 , clinical NHS, welfare state, social housing
4th wave 1960’s to the present – effective intervention to prolong life, understanding of risk factors, increasing concern re social determinants of health
5th Wave – core tenent is to promote the active participation of the population as a whole with a renewed focus on working together towards health as a common good.
the cultural shift emphases a society characterised by individual dependence and social interdependence which embodies engagement so that personal and social goals can be achieved justly.
Culture - commonly defined as a shared system of learned norms, Beliefs, values and behaviours
A health promoting societal context is characterised by a culture in which healthy behaviours are the norm and in which institutional , social and physical environments support this mind-set
Achievement of a new culture for health requires a positive holistic and collaborative effort of a wide range of stakeholders
A community assets based approach
National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance endorses community engagement as a strategy for health improvement. There is a substantial body of evidence on community participation and empowerment and on the health benefits of volunteering.
National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance endorses community engagement as a strategy for health improvement. There is a substantial body of evidence on community participation and empowerment and on the health benefits of volunteering.
There is a growing national and international evidence base showing the range of outcomes and cost benefit that arts and cultural organisations can deliver.

Research has shown that arts and cultural activities are particularly valuable when compared with other interventions, as they are more likely to engage participants and ensure continuing participation. They can reach people without stigmatising them.
Arts and cultural activities can also demonstrate the value they can add to a range of policy imperatives, particularly where policy promotes objectives of wellbeing, prevention and self-management, for example through the Care Act and the NHS Five Year Forward View. The Social Value Act, an important piece of legislation that could be used to strengthen the links between different services and the wider environmental, economic and social conditions of an area, could harness the arts and cultural sector in pursuit of these objectives.
Evidence across a range of service areas shows that investment in ‘upstream’ interventions that prevent conditions worsening can help to reduce demand for more acute services and thereby avoid increasing pressure and costs. The NHS Five Year Forward View states that although some of what is needed can be brought about by the NHS itself, new partnerships are required to deliver a radical upgrade in prevention and public health.
Arts and culture has been shown through a range of project examples and evaluations to contribute to primary and secondary prevention, which aim to prevent harm occurring, and reduce the impact of a disease or injury that has already occurred.
Older People - One of the main areas of alignment between public services and the arts and cultural sector is with support and care for older people. The high cost of elderly care is often accompanied by poor outcomes, and the aging population across the UK has created a focus on alternative models of care and support for people as they grow older. There have been some striking innovations from arts and cultural organisations in supporting people with dementia, with Parkinson’s disease and in care homes. Parkinson’s UK has a section on creative therapies on their website that highlights the value of dancing and singing groups for people with Parkinson’s. The Alzheimer’s Association highlights the benefit of music and arts therapies on their website. Some of the arts and cultural projects working with older people are for those who have a specific condition, but there is also a range of activities, from choirs to dancing and theatre, that also keep people healthy and maintain their wellbeing, which is an important part of the picture.
Mental health - The NHS has made parity of esteem for mental health a priority, in an effort to ensure that mental health is treated equally to physical health. Many arts and cultural projects that have shown a positive impact on mental health, and in ways that are often less stigmatising than more traditional services.
Physical health - A range of arts and cultural programmes are now working to improve physical health conditions. There are choirs that work with patients to increase their lung capacity and magicians working in hospitals using adapted magic tricks to support physical rehabilitation. Arts and culture encompass a range of physical activities that can be adapted to varied health objectives and there is constant innovation. There are five broad areas of arts and culture in health:
Arts in a healthcare environment: many hospitals and healthcare settings now incorporate art work and some have dedicated arts rooms; Participatory arts programmes: many GP surgeries, care homes, hospitals and other community spaces use the arts as a method to engage people and improve their wellbeing.
Wellbeing - is now being measured at national, regional and local levels, and the Government has established a new What Works centre for wellbeing. In Kent and other areas arts interventions have been specifically commissioned to promote positive well-being, and deliver activities to improve population level wellbeing. The Arts, Health and Wellbeing APPG has been exploring the links between these areas, and the culture and sport strand of the What Works Centre for Wellbeing will continue to strengthen the evidence base.
Personalisation - the policy of personalisation is continuing to be rolled out across health and social care. Increasing numbers of people are allocated personal budgets and there is a continued focus in health and social care on giving people more choice and control over the support they get. Arts and culture represent a huge opportunity to provide personal budget holders with a wider and more engaging range of activities and support.
‘Arts and culture’ captures a range of activities, innovations and interventions. Integrated into the heart of public services, they have the potential to help meet many of the challenges and objectives facing commissioners.
Historically, the arts and culture sector has shown real promise and innovation in delivering social and economic outcomes. But arts and cultural projects have been operating around the edges of mainstream public services, often grant funded by inspired leaders who want to invest in them, but are not strategically integrated into commissioning.
At a national level, there has been significant interest in cultural commissioning. The concept has attracted attention from policymakers, academics, think tanks and others.
In health, Public Health England, the Department of Health, the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Arts, Health and Well-being; the Association of Directors of Public Health; the Royal Society for Public Health and the What Works Centre for Wellbeing have all shown an interest in promoting arts and culture within the health sector.
In local government, the LGA, New Local Government Network, Local Government Information Unit and Commissioning Academy have been strong supporters of the work and the Social Care Institute for Excellence has included case studies on arts and culture in its Prevention library.
Many of these organisations have partnered with the Cultural Commissioning programme (CCP), funded by Arts Council England, to deliver events, and will be promoting the work to their members and audiences. The CCP has been invited to present its work through a number of sector conferences, papers and seminars, which indicates a high level of interest in what arts and culture can offer public services.
Many arts and cultural organisations are at the hub of their communities, with places and networks that people visit and use on a daily basis. They can be participative, engaging and responsive to the interests people have. They don’t ‘look’ like traditional services – and this may be the greatest asset they bring to commissioners. They usually comprise enjoyable, engaging activities that can be brought into public services to increase the reach and depth of impact across a range of objectives.
With the establishment of the new public health system there is also a public health set of outcomes indicators called the PHOF. There are four domains and there are indicators within each of these that are relevant to physical place and health such as utilisation of green spaces, physical activity, air pollution and excess winter deaths
1. Objective:
Improvements against wider factors which affect health and wellbeing and health inequalities.
2. Objective:
People are helped to live healthy lifestyles, make healthy choices and reduce health inequalities.
3. Objective:
The population’s health is protected from major incidents and other threats, whilst reducing health inequalities.
4. Objective:
Reduced numbers of people living with preventable illness and people dying prematurely, whilst reducing the gap between communities
Shown on this slide are those Indicators which have a strong association in part with place and environment. (e.g. Domain 4 – Mortality from CVD – a recent study showed
High levels of aircraft noise were associated with increased risks of stroke, coronary heart disease, and cardiovascular disease for both hospital admissions and mortality in areas near Heathrow airport in London. (BMJ 2013;347:f5432 8 Oct 2013)
Just to note a word of caution, the public sector is often wary of conflicts of interest, being sponsored by a tobacco company or major sugar manufacturer doesn’t sit well with providing health services.
Similarly if you are providing publicly funded services then it is important to consider the food environment so that the intervention’s whole impact is good and positive and not undermined by lots of sweets, alcohol or cake.
Local authorities already consider how to support Small and medium enterprise to bid for contracts. So learn from other sectors and link with Chamber of Commerce for common learning.
The physical activity sector have organised well and there may be learning from them that can be drawn across, especially from the County Sport Partnership network.
Be open about conflicts and talk them through, some can be worked with, others are road blocks but better to be open at the start.
