The Old Hospital Trust is a newly formed organisation in rural South Lincolnshire. It was formed by Liz Kelleher, an artist and arts educator, formerly working in secondary arts education and most recently as the Head of Art at Spalding High School for 15 years. Brigitte, a former art and food technician and Corinne a current DT technician are members of the trust.

Together, they have formed the A&E collaborative, seeking to bring arts and wellbeing initiatives to the South Holland community and creating new spaces and opportunities for creatives. Our vision is to transform a former Victorian hospital, centrally placed in Spalding, into an arts and community centre. We are making plans to grow the collaborative, bringing together arts practitioners and individuals from a diverse community base, who support our aims and projects as a strategy to create a ‘loud voice of change’ for the area.
