You don’t need a diagnosis- you need community, expression, movement.
Creative Health is the new frontier in Australian healthcare, where murals regulate nervous systems, playlists replace pills, and dance floors become places of repair.
It’s called social prescribing, and it’s backed by doctors, health experts, and a growing national movement—including Music Police.
Social prescribing connects you to creative, cultural, and social activities that support your wellbeing. Instead of more medication—or turning to alcohol or other drugs—it might mean:
🎧 Joining a music workshop 🎨 Participating in a local mural project 💃 Getting back on a dance floor Creating something with your hands 🌿 Reconnecting with people in your community
It’s about treating the root cause, not just the symptoms—especially when it comes to stress, anxiety, isolation, or burnout.
Because here’s the truth: most of us are just looking for a high that feels good and actually lasts. One that doesn’t leave us wrecked the next morning. What goes up doesn’t always have to come down—when it’s natural. Joy, connection, creativity—these are the kind of highs worth chasing. No side effects. No regrets. Just life, turned up.
HOW DO I ACCESS IT?
It’s simple. Ask your:
✔️ GP ✔️ Practice Nurse ✔️ Community Health Service
to refer you for a Creative Health prescription. No red tape. No jargon. Just a link to programs that make you feel alive again.
Music Police works directly with health services, Primary Health Networks (PHNs), and GPs to provide artist-led programs grounded in evidence and lived experience.
