Welcome to Breakthrough 

&  Reflections Art In Health Charity



Breakthrough  is a user led organisation  that promotes positive mental health through the creative arts.   The pictures on this website and the accompanying Reflections Magazine showcase the creative talents and art of people who have suffered mental distress.

Breakthrough was founded and run by Angie and Tony Russell, and we are now lucky enough to have Hayley Youell working with us too.   It develops and influences national policy on art and mental health, shares positive practice and develops an international network for anyone with similar objectives, and campaigns for more recognition of the good the arts achieve for mental well being

We have now been able to form Reflections Art in Health charity, with the help of our Trustees,  and will be expanding our activities, so you will notice a number of changes on this website over the next couple of weeks.  We hope you enjoy the art on show here.   All images are copyright and must not be reproduced without permission from the Artist.   If you would like to purchase or rent these pictures please use the Contact Us facility.

We would also like to thank Mike Farrar CBE -  Formerly, Chief Executive  of NHS North West for his support  which has allowed us to set up this website, and Roger Marlow of Health2Works for his practical help in making it happen.
