Sandy was going about her life as a mental health expert when the phone rang. It was her friend Paul who had just started a photograhy MA and wanted to do a project about how he had used photography and nature to help overcome grief. This creative collaboration turned out to be the first of many and they soon realised that they had common goals in wanting to help and support others through the promotion of creative mental health and wellbeing practices. They decided to join forces in 2023 and so Sanpau creative wellbeing was born.
