Who cares? – Improving the quality of healthcare through theatre.

I am absolutely delighted to share that I have been awarded an Arts and Humanities Research Council Catalyst grant from the UK’s Research and Innovation (URKI) funding body.
For the next 3 years, I’ll be using participatory theatre and creative workshops to explore experiences of care and carelessness in medical settings along the Kenyan coast. This project is a collaboration with the inspirational Jukwaa Arts Productions, a performing arts company in Mombasa that I have been collaborating with since 2022.
This project uses participatory theatre productions to bring together healthcare professionals and ordinary people, fostering unique forums for public debate and enabling audiences to put forward original and community-generated solutions to enduring healthcare challenges.

Zoë is currently the Just Futures Programme Manager for the ‘Joy as Resistance’ Residency at the Science Gallery London. Over the next 6 months she will be supporting the inspiring collective Hey, Sis. to use arts-based and embodied methods to explore how sisterhood and creativity can generate liberatory futures – especially for Gen Z womxn and girls with global majority roots in South London.
This Residency is part of an ESRC-funded project of the Visual & Embodied Methodologies Network at King’s.
