Our Work: Health & Wellbeing

There is an emerging picture of the positive impact that engaging with the arts, culture and creativity can have on physical and mental health and wellbeing. University museums are well placed to offer their services, programming and spaces to encourage wellbeing and help with mental health for both students and the broader community.

This sheet was produced in November 2022 for the Museums Association Conference 2022 advocacy event, showcasing examples of UMIS members’ work for stakeholders and Scottish Government. This is just a selection of our work in this area.
