Artlift provides a 'bridge' between the arts & creativity and health sectors, by designing evidence based creative programmes that meet the needs of people affected by a range of health issues. Founded by GP Dr Simon Opher in Dursley, Gloucestershire, we support people with a range of long term health conditions including cancer, stroke, chronic pain, dementia and mental ill-health. Participants are often referred by their health professional (e.g. GP, District Nurse, Community Mental Health team) for a course of 8 weeks of creative sessions with a professional artist. Proven benefits of our intervention include reduced anxiety/depression, increased social interaction, increased physical activity, reduced need for medication. We currently deliver arts residencies at 12 locations across Gloucestershire and Wiltshire and support more than 200 people a year. "The classes help take my mind off everything negative because you get so engrossed in the work. I find it therapeutic; I really look forward to coming. It makes me feel good about myself because I am doing something I never really thought I could do."

The Amazon Charitable Trust’s (ACTrust) mission is to keep the Amazon rainforest standing. We think that the only approach that will allow us to achieve this goal is by helping the locals to develop a sustainable way of life, and through fostering research. We take a grassroots approach, working with the communities and helping them to devise a specific set of projects designed to improve their life standards. At the same time, we help them to develop a modus vivendi that keeps the ecosystem protected. We are currently working with the community of Xixuau, located along the Jauaperi River in the Brazilian state of Roraima, to make them self-sustainable. The project includes the establishment of a federally recognized reserve of 1.5 million acres, the development of an ecotourism project, commercialization of sustainable Brazil nuts and a world-class research centre that will involve INPA (Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazonia) and Royal Botanic Kew Gardens.
