Our Mission
To connect people with local cultural and environmental spaces.
To promote community engagement and cohesion.
To foster creativity and cultural exploration.
Community-Centric Approach
We consider art, nature, and heritage
as positive tools for change—helping people to:
Enjoy better health and quality of life
Build confidence and attain new skills
Return to work or education
Connect with one another and their communities
Shape a sustainable future with community innovation
How we work
By working with adults, young people, their families, schools, creative practitioners, workshop leaders, cultural organisations, local authorities, and other partners, we support people and their communities to flourish and build their networks.
How we work with community members
Our relationships with individuals are grounded in a deep respect for their culture and capabilities. We deliberately move away from a deficit-based mindset, choosing instead to emphasise the strengths and potential within communities. Our experience demonstrates that involving people in practical, real-world activities fosters more positive and proactive engagement. By nurturing local communities where residents creatively collaborate with decision-makers and cultural organisations, we help foster more positive narratives, which in turn support the growth and development of these communities.
Commitment
Our approach specifically focuses on cultural identity and expression as vital pathways to growth. Through our work with communities we have recognised the importance of assisting communities in developing their social projects. These initiatives are not just about tapping into community assets; they also aim to bring tangible economic value to these areas. Our strategy is multifaceted: we strive to empower individuals by providing platforms for cultural expression, encourage collaborative efforts between community members and local authorities, and cultivate an environment where cultural diversity is celebrated and harnessed for community development.
