Abstract

The Scottish Government’s Fair Work agenda has motivated Creative Scotland, the public body supporting the arts, to promote care across the full breadth of their activity. As part of this Radical Care agenda, Creative Scotland funded action research across six organisations piloting approaches to promoting institutional change in response to different caregivers’ needs. This included the delivery of arts residencies by three of these organisations. This report documents and shares the authors’ experiences of learning by doing arts residencies for carers (taking place from July 2022 to March 2023) with one of these organisations, Hospitalfield, in Arbroath.
