Profile

Willis Newson is the UK’s leading independent arts consultancy working with health, community and education partners in public spaces. We specialise in the field of arts and health.

We aim to improve the experience of patients and healthcare staff, both day to day and in the longer term. We work to create excellent environments, promote mental wellbeing, tackle key public health priorities, boost staff morale and involve local communities. Passionate about the capacity of the arts to achieve these things, we are also committed to the use of research and evaluation to demonstrate, measure and improve the effectiveness of our work.

We like to actively engage all the individuals and communities involved in both the process and the outcome of our projects. We know that this is the best way to create sustainable legacies, forge lasting partnerships and embed learning.
