BLOOM – Setting Up | Cardiff & Vale Health Charity

The Arts for Health and Wellbeing Team, Cardiff & Vale Health Charity are delighted to announce funding from NHS Charities Together in support of community based creative arts opportunities through Rubicon Dance and Mental Health Matters.

We have built successful, long standing partnerships with both organisations who work with our inpatients and staff members at a number of our hospital sites, improving experiences and offering enjoyable activities which improve wellbeing in so many ways.

Through our arts initiative, Bloom, we are excited to now develop opportunities within our Cardiff and Vale communities to continue this support for people at home.

“The work Rubicon do couldn’t be more valuable; throughout our collaboration with them, we have seen first-hand the profound effect they’ve have had on patients at St. David’s Hospital. It’s not just the patients that benefit either; collaborating with Rubicon has improved the practise of our staff who have learned new skills, techniques and approaches from Rubicon.” – Gabriel Mandal, Mental Health Matters
