The Holding Time Project brought photographic portraits, animations and mothers’ stories to Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in a major exhibition programme running from November 2023 to February 2026. Developed by artist Lisa Creagh with mothers from Cheshire and Merseyside and supported by Improving Me, the exhibition celebrated the diversity of breastfeeding experiences while challenging stigma and promoting maternal wellbeing. Touring the Royal Liverpool, Aintree and Broadgreen hospitals, the project connected creative health, public art and NHS breastfeeding policy.
