How can we measure the benefits of participation in arts-based activities? It seems subjective, but perhaps there are other routes? @nshaughnessy1 @JWalduck.

Cults/cult behaviour so insidious, sign of the times right now and a warning indicator. @CatrinNye’s ‘A Very British Cult’ is a must-watch!Robert Deikman’s classic vol ‘The Wrong Way Home’ on cult behaviour rings true as ever #commoneverydaytrance.
18 months ago, I got a call from Dawn saying her boyfriend was trying to escape a life coaching group. that was actually a cult. It started the weirdest & most fascinating investigation of my career. A Very British Cult is out now. Watch @BBCiPlayer:
