Enhancing environments

Thanks to donations, Hywel Dda Health Charities purchased artwork depicting local scenery and plants for the new Bro Myrddin Wellbeing Hub in Johnstown, Carmarthenshire.

17 pieces of artwork of surrounding areas and decorative plants have been funded for the hub.

The hub is Wales’ first mental health crisis hub for children and young people who are in need of urgent support and is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Elaine Wade, Business Manager, said: “We’re incredibly grateful that charitable funds have allowed us to purchase the pieces of artwork and plants for the hub.

“The artwork will ensure the building is more inviting and will add colour and interest to take the bareness off the walls to ensure the young people and staff feel comfortable.

“The plants will make the building feel more homely and hopefully ensure patients feel relaxed and be able to talk to staff around concerns they are experiencing.”
