Welcome!
Hope in the Heart is a social enterprise whose skilled and qualified staff and directors all have lived experience of mental health and associated issues. We are committed to using our personal experience and wider knowledge to support others who may be struggling, inform and educate people in power and influence positive change.
We do this by providing creative community workshops (mostly in London, but willing to travel), plus affordable training and events nationally and internationally. We are always keen to collaborate (see some collaborators' testimonials here). We also have a unique collection of incredible art created by our workshop participants which regularly features in our Messages from the HeART exhibitions in collaboration with partner organisations, and can be loaned or hired.
Recent exhibitions, in London and Plymouth, have taken place at venues including Battersea Arts Centre, Queen Mary University (Insider/Outsider Conference), Methodist Central Hall (the Citizens UK Mayoral Accountability Assembly), the University of Central London (UCL), the Royal College of Psychiatrists, Devonport Guildhall and Ocean Studios, Royal William Yard, Plymouth, and Devonport Guildhall, Plymouth.
Free community workshops usually take place monthly at International House, Brixton (info here) but we are taking a break for the summer. Workshop frequency has been reduced due to a lack of funding but we hope to resume a more regular schedule as soon as possible.
We are always delighted to offer affordable workshops, courses, training and events to or in collaboration with other organisations. Please contact [email protected] with any queries and visit this page for more information about our current project and events and this page to see more of the artwork featured at the exhibitions.
Short videos featuring stories and images by HITH participants can be found here (or scroll down for examples*).
