Creative Wellbeing at The Roses Theatre:

Creative wellbeing programmes harness the power of arts, music, drama and dance to enhance physical, mental and social wellbeing. By engaging in creative activities, individuals can experience a profound improvement in their overall quality of life.

How creativity can help improve mental and physical wellbeing

Increasingly recognised as an essential component of holistic healthcare, creative wellbeing is rooted in the idea that artistic expression can provide a powerful outlet for self-expression, reducing stress and improving mindfulness. Activities like singing or storytelling have been shown to alleviate anxiety and depression.

Creative practices are also widely used in clinical and therapeutic settings to support recovery from illness and promote healing. Additionally, participating in group creative activities helps build a sense of community, strengthens interpersonal relationships and reduces feelings of loneliness.

At The Roses Theatre, we are proud to host creative health programmes. As we approach our 50th anniversary in 2025, we’re excited to grow these initiatives to further support wellbeing in our community.
