Introducing Dr Audrey Tang, psychologist, author, leadership trainer, performance coach and founder of creative arts charity CLICK Arts Foundation

CLICK Arts Foundation (registered charity 1203549)

CLICK Arts Foundation (www.clickartsfoundation.org.uk) is a registered charity which aims to foster social inclusion, community growth and personal development through the arts. Based in the Midlands, United Kingdom, it provides grant funding to support grassroots creative arts programmes, particularly those that build confidence/self-worth and promote wellbeing and social inclusion.

First established as CLICK productions in 1993, the group performed, produced and ran drama and movement workshops globally, including at Edinburgh Film Festival, to support, fundraise and connect the international performing arts community. The charity now supports those who provide a safe and nurturing space and promote growth within the performing arts.

To date, the foundation’s grants have supported silent discos for those with dementia and autism, inner-city dance schools, theatre in education programmes in deprived areas and an African cultural language group preserving heritage through spoken word and drama, to name a few!

Upcoming initiatives include:

  • Fundraising Burlesque-A-Thon - a 5-hour long Burlesque session centred on confidence and self-love
  • Releasing a charity single of David Essex’s “Falling Angels Riding” alongside VERU, the Luton & Bedfordshire Violence and Exploitation Reduction Unit, to raise awareness of their #justdropit campaign to tackle knife crime.
  • A variety show with the NHFT Suicide Prevention team to raise awareness of World Suicide Prevention Day

Mental Health Matters

Mental Health Matters is a magazine-style show broadcast on the e360TV network which takes a deep dive into all things mental health and wellbeing. Dr Audrey Tang shares lived experiences and inspirational stories, as well as hearing from experts in their field to bring viewers practical tips and tools to boost their mental and emotional fitness.

Skits & Quibbles

Skits and Quibbles is an arts and wellness show broadcast on the e360TV network. Hosted by Dr Audrey Tang, it provides both established and up-and-coming performers with a platform to perform (skits) and discuss their inspiration and aspirations (quibbles). The aim of the show is to support performers within the creative arts industry with media experience and visibility, whether they come from music, comedy, dance or the performing arts.

Author of The Leader’s Guide to Wellbeing: How to use soft skills to get hard results

Dr Audrey Tang offers a step change in how leaders and organisations should approach wellbeing in their organisations. She recommends techniques and strategies to banish burnout and create a culture of psychological safety and inclusion to keep teams feeling valued, motivated and energised. With lots of exercises to practise regularly, this book will help you make lasting positive, transformational change.

The Leader’s Guide to Wellbeing completes Dr Tang’s ‘head–heart–gut’ series of books (see also The Leader’s Guide to Mindfulness and The Leader’s Guide to Resilience) and supports wellbeing as a core function of leadership. It offers the leader – and their teams – a clear understanding of what wellbeing is, as well as practical ways to create a culture of wellbeing within the organisation and the individual.
