Thanks so much for coming! It’s great to be able to build on these connections between the 4 GTE hubs, and look forward to further work in the new year. 🤝 ✨🌿

On until the 17th Feb 2025. Call in, have a look, find out about all the exciting projects happening as part of Design HOPES - let us know your thoughts and responses! 🌿✨

On the 5th of December, Design HOPES launched its interim exhibition at the V&A Dundee—a truly momentous occasion. This event marked a significant milestone, not only in raising the profile of the project but also in showcasing the work my theme is contributing to the Green Ward Toolkit. It was inspiring to see the progress of the other six themes and the innovative projects being developed across the Scottish universities. Having the opportunity to showcase our work in Dundee’s iconic design museum is an honour and a privilege. The evening was truly special, and none of this would have been possible without the continuous support of the NHS leads, Dundee team and the dedicated designers curating the space. I’m immensely proud to be part of this journey, contributing to meaningful and sustainable changes within NHS Scotland. This exhibit is on show from now until mid February 2025 free of charge. I would encourage anyone who is interested in design for healthcare to pop-along. #designhopes #exhibit #showcase #greenwardtoolkit #vandadundee
