Improving Wellbeing
“I cried the first time I came, just to be around people in a welcoming place made a big difference.” Participant, Braunstone Town Library
The Cultural Communities Network (CCN) programme was set up to provide opportunities for social, emotional and psychological support through specific Museum, Heritage and Library activity. The aim of this work was to enhance individual wellbeing and collective community resilience. We were specifically tasked to introduce activity that supported individual wellbeing for people who experience, or are at risk of, experiencing social isolation. With our cultural venues we explored different ways we could support or strengthen the wellbeing of people within our communities.
