Better health through better communication
Studio Health is a healthcare communications practice based in London delivering projects with global impact. We understand health and specialise in how to improve communication between patients and healthcare professionals.
Our skills and expertise bring the science of communication, health psychology and health literacy to life, through innovative projects that measurably impact patient health.
The first project we delivered in 2009 – launching a speaking book about medicines safety in sub-Saharan Africa – shaped the work we love to do for our clients. It touched our heads and hearts and we’ve been pursuing projects to help people understand health information ever since.
The practice is led by Candida Halton, MSc Health Psychology, Visiting Lecturer and Researcher at University of Westminster. Candida founded Studio Health on the principles of producing evidence-based, expert-led work, in collaboration with leading academics, healthcare practitioners and researchers. Our Understand, Design, Implement, Evaluate approach draws on an unrivalled global network of subject matter experts we’ve built over the last decade. We lead collaborations to deliver meaningful solutions that have a long-term impact.
