Creativity and Wellbeing Week at York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals

Events:

York and Scarborough Teaching Hospital:

Stepping Out Exhibition

The Arts Team are showcasing shoes in a series of photographs to be exhibited this summer at York hospital and on their online creative resource for staff wellbeing, CultureClub.Social.  The Arts Team would love to hear from staff who have a special pair of shoes that help them step outside of work into another world.  Do your shoes take you to your happy place, have they danced across a ballroom or trodden across your allotment?  Do they take you on adventures climbing mountains or cycling across the country?  If you and your shoes have a positive story to share we’d love to hear from you.  Bring your shoes along to Nightingale’s Courtyard, opposite the chapel on the main corridor at York hospital on Wednesday 18th May between 11:30am and 1:30pm, meet the Arts Team and have your shoes photographed by Elly for the exhibition.   If you’re unable to make it on the day please contact Elly who will arrange to photograph your shoes another time Elly.ross@york.nhs.uk / elly.ross@nhs.net
