The gallery above showcases some award-winning artwork and photography from people in secure mental health units run by Partnerships in Care. The pieces are from this year’s Koestler Awards – an annual charity-run competition that showcases art by offenders and people in secure mental health facilities. Galleries with some of the artwork from this year’s awards are open in various cities across the UK. Check out the exhibition locations here.
Below you can listen to ‘No decision about me’, a song by patients at The Spinney secure mental health facility that won a silver award in the ‘singer-songwriter’ category.
