Sorry this project was unsuccessful, we did not reach our fundraising goal.

Mind Murals is an ambitious and innovative project where the community including local artists, mental health service users, the NHS, Haringey Mental Health Trust, grassroots organizations, charities and community groups come together to use art to heal. Mental health service users at Blossom Court, St Ann’s Hospital will help to design an impactful and uplifting mural for their new building. The mural will also inform and educate via its own AR app which provides access to inspiring and practical mental health resources provided by our community. Resources such as art, personal stories, urgent help information, advice, music, poetry, mindfulness and more. An ongoing program of content provides a continued legacy and 1000 posters will allow the resource to be accessible to communities far beyond the hospital grounds. Mind Murals champions engagement and creativity for the purpose of mental health and COVID resilience and recovery.

What we'll deliver:

  • 1 gorgeous uplifting mural at St Anne's Hospital
  • 10 Creative workshops for up to 100 mental health service users
  • 1000 posters for contributors, hospitals, schools, community centres etc
  • 1 Augmented Reality app
  • 20 animated app links to mental heath support & inspiration
  • 1 Community Outreach Programme

Why it's a great idea:

Help the community recover from Covid-19 together. Provide direct Access to NHS mental health guidance & advice across the borough. Making public spaces brighter and more beautiful. Improve the building. Create a destination for local people and art tourists alike. Making art that accessible to all. Employment for local artists. A platform for underheard voices. Making information about mental health publicly available. Using art to spread a positive message about mental health. Promoting acceptance.
