Y Bwthyn RGS Macmillan Specialist Palliative Care Unit
Commissioned by Willis Newson Arts and Health consultancy, Kate created the digital murals and window manifestations for the Y Bwthyn NGS Macmillan Specialist Palliative Care Unit. It all began with a colour palette, which soon evolved into a bespoke interior design scheme offering a sense of identity and place. Kate, through consultation with staff and patients, developed a feature wall mural that reflected the local landscape. This flows right through the central communal space.

As an additional to the project Kate was asked by Macmillan, in partnership with the Cwm Taf University Health Board, to produce a special property bag. 3,000 bags have been created to begin with and Kate hopes the idea will be rolled out to other health trusts and hospitals. It’s the little details like this – bags that show thoughtfulness and kindness - that can make such a difference to how people feel at a difficult time.
