Where we work & who can borrow our art

Paintings in Hospitals works with 180 healthcare and social care organisations in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. All types of care organisation can borrow from our art collection, and everyone is welcome to participate in our talks, tours and workshops.

We believe that art is for everyone, regardless of a person's condition or location. That is why our collection is the first and only art collection available to be borrowed by any health and social care site in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

This includes, but is not limited to: hospitals, hospices, care homes, GP practices, healthy living centres, SEN schools, dental surgeries and mental health facilities.

Paintings in Hospitals showcase displays in London, East England, North East England, East Midlands, West Midlands, South Wales, and Northern Ireland

Paintings in Hospitals showcase locations

We reach areas around the country through our regional showcases. These showcases are special care partner sites that display large portions of our art collection as examples of good practice. They showcase our four different loans programmes. Our loans programmes are aimed at specific audiences such as Children and Young People, and Older People. If you'd like to visit one of our showcase displays to see our artworks in person, get in touch with us.

We have seven regional showcases across the UK:

  • London: University College Hospital
  • East England: West Suffolk Hospital
  • North East England: York Hospital
  • East Midlands: Royal Derby Hospital
  • West Midlands: Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham
  • South Wales: University Hospital Llandough
  • Northern Ireland: Ulster Hospital
