On behalf of BCP’s Cultural Compact, Pavilion Dance is hosting a series of conversations to bring a wide range of creative organisations and individual practitioners from across BCP together to:

  • Grow a shared understanding of what is currently happening and the relationships that already exist across the conurbation
  • Share good practice and encourage networking & partnership building to enhance & extend what’s already happening
  • Feed into the developing Dorset NHS Creative Health Strategy, and help to position BCP organisations to be part of programmes supported by NHS Dorset in future
  • Explore the health & social care sector’s approach to evaluation and measuring outcomes, and consider agreeing a shared set of measurements to build a BCP-wide evidence base

The sessions will be facilitated by the Director of the National Centre for Creative Health, Alexandra Coulter, who brings a wealth of local and national experience. Discussions will be focused on the particular challenges and opportunities within BCP with the aim of generating concrete connections and ideas for those attending.
