Next door to the Nightingale Project’s primary site (the South Kensington and Chelsea Mental Health Centre) is the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, which was one of the sites that pioneered the introduction of art into hospitals. A research project into the effects of visual and performing arts in healthcare was carried out there and a write-up of the research is available on the Hospital’s website. See www.hospitalarts.co.uk
The London Arts in Health Forum (LAHF) is an organisation which aims to promote and support arts in health activity across London and nationally. See their website:
