What we do
Survivors’ Poetry is a survivor-led arts group coordinating artistic activities using poetry to make connections between creativity and mental health. SP uses poetry workshops, readings, performances, music, visual arts, publishing, recording and other arts activities by and for survivors of the mental health system as a means to explore wellbeing. We believe that survivors have a particular hitherto unexplored artistic perception and contribution to offer society. Put more simply, Survivors’ Poetry exists to help all survivors combat the effects of mental distress in the most creative and personally empowering ways possible.
Our Vision
A world which celebrates the creative expression of survivors through poetry.
Mission
Coordinating artistic activity, publishing and promoting poetry by survivors. Supporting and developing survivors poets and establishing communication networks. Challenging and changing the social and cultural definitions of poets and poetry. Making connections between creativity and mental health.
