The HeArt of Stroke at Princess of Wales Hospital

20160407_192223

There’s still time to pop in to the Princess of Wales Hospital in Ely to see the exhibition of art by Cambridgeshire stroke patients. The exhibition, at the hospital’s Oliver Zangwill Centre, is open until Tuesday 22 April.

It’s part of a research project being carried out in partnership with the University of Bournemouth to study the effect of creating art on helping patients recover their self-confidence and sense of wellbeing after stroke.

I recently attended the launch day for the exhibition and was able to hear about the project from Dr Fergus Gracey, Dr Caroline Ellis-Hill and other members of the research team.
