Population Mental Health

A wide, high-angle photograph by Will Lepper showing The Cultural Climate Assembly, an event for cultural practitioners to discuss the climate crisis. The photo shows a large hall where attendees are sitting in groups around circular tables. In the centre, a large white mat on the floor is printed with a black graphic of a large tree's root system. A woman, likely a co-facilitator, stands on the graphic, addressing the attendees. In the background, another facilitator stands near a stage set up with display boards.

🥳 We are pleased to be joining an amazing group of partners to work together and deliver upon a £1.5 million The National Lottery Community Fund award for a ground-breaking project linking climate action and mental wellbeing in London…
