## Description

We are seeking a dynamic and passionate individual to take on the role of Creative Health Lead within the South West London health and care system.

This role, supported by Arts Council England and The Baring Foundation, is part of the National Centre for Creative Health's Creative Health Leads Programme, which aims to integrate creative health across health and care systems.

As Creative Health Lead, you will work across South West London boroughs (Croydon, Kingston, Merton, Sutton, Richmond, and Wandsworth) and SWL ICB to achieve Key Performance Indicators identified by each partner. Your responsibilities will include:

- Developing a model for effective connections between health, social care, and the cultural sector across South West London

- Improving understanding of the evidence base and potential for creative health to contribute at a neighbourhood, place, and system level within health and social care, with a focus on health inequalities

- Supporting mapping of existing creative health provision and a mechanism for this to be regularly updated and shared with health and social care colleagues

- Ensuring partner service plans and strategies feature creative health as a delivery plan, including referral pathways, commissioning opportunities, and collaboration options

- Identifying funding solutions to enable sustainable creative health programmes within the health and social care system

- Expanding creative health's use within social prescribing programmes

- Expanding creative health's use within specific priority areas, such as major conditions pathways and neighbourhood health plans

The successful candidate will be an imaginative and self-motivated individual with a passionate belief in the power of culture and creativity to benefit the lives of individuals and communities. You will have an excellent understanding of SWL local health and/or cultural 'ecosystems' and be in a position to build on existing relationships and take an 'asset-based' approach to further developments.

In return, we offer a salary of GBP 52,738 - 53,919 per year, a fixed-term contract of 24 months, and fantastic benefits.
