Social inclusion through the arts

Abstract

The Old Parcels Office Arts Centre is a community arts‐in‐health project in the heart of Bridlington that aims to promote positive mental health for all through creative activity. Josephine Saunders describes the origins of the project and how it manages to bring together the issues of mental health and social inclusion by opening its doors to all the people of Bridlington, not just people with a diagnosis of mental health problems.
