In partnership with PiPA (Parents and Carers in Performing Arts). More details soon.
Many performing arts professionals find that caring responsibilities, be it of a child or a loved one, impact their ability to work. Research from PiPA shows that 60% of performing arts professionals surveyed in their Balancing Act:Part 2 reported difficulty managing both family and work. Parenting and caring can have unique impacts on mental and physical health. For example, research from Carers UK shows that many carers health is impacted by their caring responsibilities.
We are happy to welcome PiPA (Parents and Carers in Performing Arts) to speak about how the performing arts industry can impact parents and carers

BAPAM’s expert-led training events are ideal for healthcare and education practitioners working in the performing arts who wish to deepen their understanding and enhance their skills. We explore research, evidence and practice to treat and prevent common and complex health problems specific to artists, creators and performance professionals. We share knowledge and invite discussion on key topics in current performing arts medicine practice. Our approach is multidisciplinary: physiological and psychological care for healthy and sustainable creative practice.
Online sessions are held on the last Wednesday of the month from 7pm BST. Most sessions are recorded for ticket holders who cannot attend on the day (please check the event description).
