Arts Council Grant Awarded for Don’t Hush – Part 2

We’re thrilled to share that we’ve been awarded a generous Arts Council grant, through Sheffield Hospitals Charity to deliver an expanded Don’t Hush creative health programme for parents who have experienced late-pregnancy loss, baby loss, or neonatal death.

Working in partnership with Jessops maternity services’ bereavement midwives and Sheffield Museums, we will offer a series of bespoke creative sessions for mums and their partners. These sessions have been co-designed by people with lived experience to support wellbeing, provide safe spaces to share experiences, and help participants express their stories through creative making.

The programme will culminate in a showcase, bringing together friends, family, and NHS colleagues to celebrate the work created.

Get involved: If you or someone you know could benefit from this programme, we warmly encourage you to take the next step.

👉Email [email protected] to find out more or register your interest.

Sessions begin in September 2026, and spaces are limited—so please get in touch early.

It was a joy to attend the opening of the James West Treatment Centre in Ophthalmology at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital this week.
The new centre also features a fantastic large scale mural which brings colour, interest and wayfinding to the space, incorporating ophthalmologic imagery and combining this with its Sheffield setting.
The mural is by local artist Lisa Maltby Studio and was funded by Sheffield Hospitals Charity. Special shout out also to Victoria, our Arts Coordinator for bringing this project to life.
The new centre was unveiled by Lord David Blunkett, who spoke to Lisa about her design. Feedback about the mural was all hugely positive, with a member of the Reception team coming over to say how well it's been received.
This is what artwork in hospitals is all about, improving healthcare spaces with work that brings joy, reduces anxiety, provides talking points and practical aspects such as wayfinding, and has a meaningful connection to the place.
