Who we are
At the beginning of 2022 Branwen, an artist and Polly, a therapist set up the Orange Collective. Both are passionate about creative approaches to wellbeing for communities and individuals and set up Orange Collective to support both artists and therapists working in the wellbeing sector.
Between them they have a wealth of experience in therapy, arts practices, teaching and training.
Together with their workshop facilitators their work has helped to grow and support a community of artists and mental health practitioners. Their aim is to increase access to high quality, trauma-informed wellbeing support.
