Save Arts Therapies in Sheffield!
Please keep arts therapies available to service users in adult community mental health teams.
Please explain your proposed alternative service that will replace art therapy.
At the very least, we ask that you have an open consultation with service users and staff before the planned cuts to services.

Arts Therapists provide a unique approach within mental health care.
It will not only limit the therapeutic services we are able to offer to clients but also be a loss to the teams in which therapists offer perspectives in discussions, decision making and reviews. It will inevitably put more pressures on an already stretched service.
