CORRIDOR ART BOX

​

In December 2023 we were re-commissioned by NHS Health and Justice South East to expand the Corridor Art Box project that began during lockdown 2020 as a direct response to the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

Over 2 years we will be delivering 3000 art boxes to the most vulnerable people in secure estates who are experiencing acute mental health challenges, loneliness and isolation.

User consultation sessions will inform refreshed content to continue the contribution towards supporting their mental health and wellbeing.
 

Many of the people who will receive the art boxes have been identified as having additional/complex needs such as autism, ADHD as well as many having mental health challenges.

​

Corridor has created resources that provide opportunities for creativity, encouraging mindful activity and providing an opportunity for self-expression at this challenging time.

​

Each box consists of carefully considered, quality art materials – pens, papers, pastels, pencils, a booklet of suggested activities and a set of images (postcards)

​

We are thrilled to have commissioned 9 artists, Alma Haser,  Lucy Joyce, James Kirby, Mark Murphy, Ryan Prince & Monikah Lee, Daniel Regan, Becky Warnock and Nilupa Yasmin to create bespoke postcards especially for our unique Corridor Art Boxes.

I didn’t know that I could draw - or even enjoyed art but I have discovered that I can and I do and I think it really helped my mental health. I like art with my whole heart. Thank you!!
