How can creative mental health organisations maximise their use of existing resources and generate new ones to support their work?
Introduction
This report is a practical and pragmatic resource for use by arts and cultural organisations working with and alongside people with mental health problems. It aims to show approaches and inspire action by sharing a sample of what’s been shown to be possible by organisations thinking about how to maximise their use of available resources (whether that’s people, relationships, physical assets or income revenue streams), or how to generate new ones or pass resources onto others.
It includes:
- 14 case studies illustrating different aspects of resourcefulness
- 24 quick ideas for using your resources
- a set of optional tools (editable versions in Word available below) to aid thinking and planning.
