Company activities and impact

Linden Dance Company CIC runs arts/dance activity throughout the UK. During this period Linden engaged in performances at indoor venues, outdoor locations and schools. Linden provided workshops for participation at an open community level, in schools and education settings (primary school through to university level) and for professional artists. Linden’s activity was based in Birmingham but also provided activity outside of the region.Linden Dance Company CIC benefited the community in the following ways:Providing work opportunities for 20 professionals on a freelance basis during dance projects, providing important work experience and CPD.Providing work experience placement to 3 x 26 year old students.Running an open access community youth dance company for 10 to 22 year olds which has 30 participants who attend weekly providing access to arts/dance for young people. Running workshops and arts activity in local schools, where over 1000 students aged 5 to 22 years have had the opportunity to experience arts/dance workshops and activity, many of whom often would not get the opportunity to do so.Bringing dance performances to local communities, engaging over 3000 audience members, and giving access for them to experience socially relevant cultural work.

Consultation with stakeholders

The company’s stakeholders are the freelance professionals that work with Linden Dance Company CIC, the youth participants of the open access youth dance club, the audiences that experience Linden performances and the schools/pupils who engage with Linden.The directors of the company have worked in arts and education for a number of years and developed the business model for the company based on their experience in the sectors. The directors have lived in Birmingham for several year so understand key areas in deprivation who need the company’s support.During projects, workshops and performances we ensure all participants, audiences and professionals fill out anonymous evaluation forms. We also collect monitoring data.This has helped us to build an understanding of our communities needs and preferences. We have identified key themes, topics and activities that will engage communities in our highlighted target (deprived) areas. With use of research supported by Arts Council England we bring relevant work to ‘Priority Areas.’
