Managing delivery of Branching Out, a project investigating how elements of ‘Artscapers’ - an established art-in-nature programme - can be scaled up to benefit more children, contributing to a national research initiative seeking to understand how local, cultural, natural and community assets can mitigate health inequality.

I have managed the co-creation of new resources and delivered a training and mentoring programme for 6 schools to develop community ‘Artscaper’ volunteers, increasing their capacity to support pupils’ mental health. Research from the pilot will feed into the national research initiative and be used to consider national models for this type of intervention.
