We are proud to bring nature and warmth to the Chalmers Centre with artist Natasha Russell. Who worked closely with staff and patients to ensure the artwork represented the ethos of inclusivity and respect that underpins the service, whilst also connecting with those visiting the Centre.

Well it wasn’t the best weather for heading out on our community wellbeing walk at Gracemount. It didn’t stop our super pair here meeting up anyway. It’s good to get out together for a blether. @nhslothcharity.bsky.social
