An essential guide to best practices in forming partnerships between creative arts therapists and arts in health practitioners and implementation in a range of settings such as hospitals, museums, nursing homes, schools and prisons with successful accounts and joint projects from leading creative therapists around the globe.
Case studies and perspectives from around the globe illustrate examples of effective collaborations between clinical creative arts therapists and arts in health practitioners. Reaching beyond silos, these professionals can collaborate to deliver inspirational practice in a variety of settings. Leading experts explain how they have pioneered arts-based practice, developed successful partnerships and overcome difficulties in fostering relationships to offer better support and increase access to their services by the public.
Discussions surrounding policy, funding and international initiatives towards integration offer a timely call to action. By working together, we reach collective goals of positively impacting clients' mental health, wellbeing and quality of life through the arts.

Rubin, Art Therapist, Author and Filmmaker A timely book showing the role that the complementary sectors of arts and health and arts therapies can play together to improve health and wellbeing. -- Dr Daisy Fancourt, University College London & Director, World Health Organisation Collaborating Centre for Arts & Health This ground-breaking book shows just how much more of the vast potential of arts and health is revealed through collaboration between practitioners in the field, than when any of us attempt single perspective approaches. -- Dr Neil Springham, consultant art therapist and executive director of therapies at Oxleas National Health Service foundation Trust
