Creativity and Wellbeing Week runs from 18th - 24th May 2026. So this week I am bringing you an episode which is all about creativity in health, basing our conversation on the phenomenal book, Art Cure by Daisy Fancourt. If you haven't come across this book, it is absolutely brilliant.  Daisy has managed to distill into a few hundred pages a giant but incredibly accessible meta-analysis of all of the evidence around creative health andthe arts for health, thinking not only about wellbeing, but also about mental and physical health and the tangible benefits which we and our patients can gain from involvement in the arts and creativity.

Who better to talk about this book with than the very wonderful Nicola Davis, who has been on the podcast before and who some of you may know from her work with the organisation Creative Clinic?
