Who We Work With - In 2 Cultures

OUR CUSTOMERS

WHO WE WORK WITH

‘Learning through enjoyment’ is our motto, and we try to incorporate this into every part of our work. We have a very diverse mix of customers, ranging from young children through to care home residents, hospitals and Dementia cafes. We support local and international charities whenever possible, and work extensively with local community organisations including Cubs and Scouts through to adult groups such as the WI and U3A

SCHOOLS

Having worked for Warwickshire Education Authority for many years, we have a wealth of experience working in schools. Our projects have included supporting schools with the multicultural aspect of their curriculum, arts weeks, one off workshops and long term projects culminating in a dance drama performance to parents and the community.

Our sessions are always fun and engaging and through the medium of the arts we aim to create enthusiasm and interest in other cultures. We believe an understanding of other cultures for young people is very important, and hopefully will lead to tolerant and informed adults

COMMUNITY

Our community and charity work are very important to us. We regularly undertake sessions for a wide variety of community groups. Our work with young people includes youth groups such as the Scouts and inclusive projects such as ILEAP, a charity providing leisure activities for young people with special needs.

We offer workshops for adult groups such as the WI and U3A. These include cultural talks, for example on African textiles, as well as music and dance sessions accessible for everyone. In all cases we can cater for small groups or larger gatherings

MUSIC AS THERAPY

During the course of a week, we visit many care homes, Dementia cafes and hospitals, using the creative arts as a way to enhance the wellbeing and environment of our audience. It is a proven fact that the arts can make a considerable contribution in complementing the care given to patients in hospitals and residents in care homes.

We work as part of the Healing Arts programme at University College Hospital, Coventry delivering fun sessions which include storytelling, art and music. Our work for care homes and Dementia cafes takes us throughout Warwickshire and the surrounding counties

EVENTS

We hold annual Youth Showcases at the Royal Spa Centre, Leamington, Stratford ArtsHouse and Bedworth Civic Hall to celebrate and highlight local young talent. These Showcases are a platform for art forms which may not have been experienced by a wider audience in the community. We use each Showcase to support one of our chosen charities.

One of our major projects, which we organise free of charge, involves bringing the world famous African Children’s Choir to the area. We bring together this wonderful choir with 200 local schoolchildren at each concert.
