Wellbeing Case Studies

Ten case studies of wellbeing projects from Welsh museums have been collected into a publication. The resource shares best practice from the Welsh museums sector with the aim to encourage more museums to engage in wellbeing work. Wellbeing activities cited include volunteer programmes, work with refuges and supporting people living with dementia. Independent consultant and author, Lynn Podmore was appointed by the Welsh Government’s Culture Division to conduct this research.

Wellbeing Study in Welsh Museums

The aim of this research study was to collect quantitative data on visitor wellbeing using the UCL Museum Wellbeing Measures Toolkit.

The data was collected from general visitors to museums using the Positive Wellbeing Umbrella (which can be found on page 15 of the Toolkit). The Wellbeing Measures Toolkit is an easy way of gathering data to promote the positive impact that Welsh museums have on visitor wellbeing and provide evidence of impact for the sector. The Toolkit is a useful resource for professionals as an aid to answering questions around future Museum Spotlight Surveys. Independent consultant and author, Lynn Podmore was appointed by the Welsh Government’s Culture Division to conduct this research.
