These chats about repair (our stuff, ourselves and our communities) range from mending textiles to the repair of broken bones, from up-cycling in the pandemic to community conflict in Bangladesh, from home made Punk Clothes to celebrating scars.

Series 5, Episode 6: Anna Matthams
In my role of Arts Manager for Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust I am responsible for delivering an arts programme to support the health and wellbeing of our patients, staff and visitors. Our projects encompass all art forms, using music, dance, creative drawing, and arts and crafts to provide individuals with the means for creative expression and to help alleviate stress and anxiety. Visual art and design are used to enhance our hospitals, helping to create healing environments where people feel comfortable and reassured. All of our arts activities are underpinned by a solid evidence base which proves the benefits of the arts on health.
