Suffolk Artlink visits the House of Lords

Suffolk Artlink visited the House of Lords today to speak at the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Creative Health Roundtable event.

Attending with Lucy were Alexandra Casey and Jen Johnson from Suffolk Artlink and Louise Hardwick, Deputy Director of Partnerships, Suffolk & North East Essex Integrated Care Board.
