About Stepping In
'Stepping In' is a training and mentoring programme for a small cohort of 4 mentees, funded by the Arts Council Wales Arts Health & Wellbeing Lottery and delivered in partnership with Swansea Bay University Health Board; Hywel Dda University Health Board; PeopleSpeakUp, Caerphilly County Borough Council Arts Development, Cardiff Metropolitan University and Cardiff School of Art.
Stepping In has been designed to respond to a lack of diversity within the arts and health creative workforce. It aims to nurture a cohort of practitioners to deliver projects in healthcare settings who share the lived experience of people from minoritised communities . Mentee practitioners with lived experience of mental health, global majority backgrounds, social exclusion or low socio-economic backgrounds are encouraged to apply to the programme and will be supported to take part in a full week’s intensive training residential, shadow an experienced artist on a live project in a health or community setting for up to 10 days (supported by project partners), receive mentoring sessions, a bursary and full wrap-around support including supervision and peer support.
