What we are about

We introduced Creative Minds in 2011 in response to feedback from service users and

carers about their desire for more creative approaches to understanding and supporting

their health and wellbeing.

To date, Creative Minds, together with our partners*, has delivered in excess of 200

projects which, in turn have benefitted over 4,000 people who use South West

Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (SWYPFT) services and/or their carers.

Creative Minds is all about the use of creative approaches and activities in healthcare;

increasing self-esteem, providing a sense of purpose, developing social skills, helping

community integration and improving quality of life.
