Who we are
Orange Collective is a community of artists, creative arts therapists, arts in health practitioners, therapists, educators & youth workers. It was established at the beginning of 2022 by Branwen, an artist and Polly, a therapist. 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.
We have grown and developed and our current community, who work both online & in person, is made up of workshop facilitators and collaborators who support a wider community of artists and mental health practitioners. You can view their profiles below. Our collective aim is to increase access to high quality, trauma-informed wellbeing support and arts in health activity.
