Commissioned by South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust and funded by charity Ey Up!, Rachael has created nature-based photographic murals aimed at transforming clinical mental health inpatient spaces into more calming and restorative environments. The project was fully co-produced with service users and staff to ensure the final murals authentically reflected lived experience and supported inpatient wellbeing.
Drawing from her archive of landscape photography, service users selected images from locations around the world including Ireland, Myanmar, Peak District and Yorkshire.
Rachael is available for similar commissions that aim to improve healthcare and wellbeing through creative, collaborative approaches.
