Paintings in Hospitals is an arts in health charity in the United Kingdom. Founded in 1959,[1] the charity's services include the provision of artwork loans, art projects and art workshops to health and social care organisations. The charity's activities are based on clinical evidence demonstrating health and wellbeing benefits of the arts to patients and care staff.[2][3]
The charity owns and manages the Paintings in Hospitals collection: a loan collection of modern and contemporary art.[4] The Paintings in Hospitals collection is the only known national art loan collection with the specific purpose of improving health and wellbeing.[5]
Paintings in Hospitals is the healthcare partner of the Arts Council Collection.[6] The charity was recognised by the Department of Health and Arts Council England as a key provider of arts and health services in the 2007 UK government publication "A prospectus for arts and health".[7][8]
