Dance for Health and Wellbeing

Rubicon firmly believes in the benefits that dance can bring to all our lives. We provide dance in a range of health and wellbeing settings across the community to help those who need it most, whether that be the elderly, disabled, or those living with and recovering from illness. Take a look at what we get up to!

We are very grateful that our health programme receives funding via The Arts, Health and Wellbeing Lottery Grant Arts Council of Wales along with additional funding support from a range of partners.
