-Schools, colleges & training providers 

IN OUR PROJECTS WE:


CO-CREATE cultural, creative and curious experiences

that support people and their communities. 


From personal development to addressing hyper-local challenges to listening and acting on community needs,

we use a tool kit of creative, critical and artistic practice to enable conversations to lead to action,

developing resilient, confident and fulfilled communities.


Because all of our work is

CO-CREATED and SOCIALLY ENGAGED

every project is unique to the time, people and place that it exists for. 


We have a network of artists, creatives, specialists and facilitators that we can bring together to make our projects work for our partners.


IN OUR SERVICES:

We provide consultation services to the community, arts and cultural sectors in:
-Fundraising
-Community Engagement & Evaluation
-Co-creation / Co-production Approaches
-Cultural Strategy & Business Development

It’s not about writing strategy documents to gather dust, assess the viability of fundraising options, consider eligibility across funders,  frame the “ask” and showcase the previous work to highlight its impact.


We tailor our approach to suit your charity/company's needs, challenges, context and budget. Working via a short term agreement, provide interim support or work for you on fixed period (medium-long term) retainer; we can build a fixed or flexible agreement.
