Company activities and impact

For Enjoyment (FE) continues to provide accessible creative workshops in line with its ethos and goals, while adapting to the significant effects of the cost-of-living crisis and the long term impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. These have included drawing, printing, painting and photography workshops as well as commissioned workshops for many organisations in the Dumfries and Galloway area that FE partners with, such as OutPost Arts, Mostly Ghostly, Dumfries and Galloway Carers centres, Nithraid, CatStrand, The Stove, Wild Goose Festival, Dumfries Fountain Project, Better Lives Partnership, DG Creative Wellbeing, The Shambellie House Trust and Dumfries Museums. These workshops events and engagements have had widespread coverage through social media forums, local press, TV and regular features in an award-winning regional magazine Dumfries and Galloway Life. The workshops and online engagement fulfil the major goals of FE, providing affordable, accessible, and inclusive creative opportunities for the community; and through those opportunities creating a positive supportive community that improves the mental and social health of individuals as FE’s list of partners suggests. FE carries out its goals by recognising that creativity is a way to express oneself and our shared sense of humanity and using this collective creative experience as a positive foundation for our community. This foundation is then used to foster and support individual and community wellbeing, which is reinforced by our ethos of accessibility, inclusivity, equality, diversity, and collective ownership in the creative community that FE has developed. The long-term effects of the covid pandemic and the cost of living crisis continued to be a major test of FE’s model, which revealed the resilience and value of FE and the community that it has fostered and helped create. It has now had to adapt to a new normal were attendance to face to face activities across the board has become effected. A huge amount of work went in to reengaging the community to coax participants back into social environments to engage in creativity and build back confidence. FE also has helped its online community move back into the physical space and supported participants to regain confidence and to rebuild the community in a new normal. Numbers have continued to increase with the offer of new and exciting-weekly, monthly and one off engagements. The development of our online platform has increased accessibility for the most vulnerable members of the community, allowing participants from as far away as Africa, Tokyo, New Zealand and the USA to be part of the community. This has given the local community the opportunity to learn, discuss, and form friendships with people from around the world as well as increase the reach of FE’s positive impact in the region and throughout Scotland. Online activity has thrived throughout this year with its community building and engaging in activities and challenges which is key in keeping creativity as a way of supporting many hundreds of people who find attending face to face sessions difficult or travel and location don’t permit it. FE’s main regular workshops continue to prove to be engaging and of value through the year. Drawing for Enjoyment ran with it’s regular weekly creative wellbeing sessions. Also engaging through two month long creative challenges of Inktober and Febcreate. Printing for Enjoyment developed new and exciting ways of engaging in the printing process focusing on high quality results using more sustainable and environmentally friendly processes. A highlight of the year was the Burnsania event held at Robert Burns house in Dumfries on Burns Night. This was the first creative event to be held at the house, involving poetry recitals the addressing of the haggis, creative challenges, talks and music recitals. This was featured on local television and in the press and the regional magazine DG Life. Painting for Enjoyment grows from strength to strength as part of For Enjoyments creative provision. It continues to be hugely successful in guiding participants through the difficulties of the painting process. It has a clear focus on building confidence and technical ability across a broad spectrum of mediums both in the studio and outdoors. These hugely popular day long workshops continue to be a cornerstone of what FE offers. FE has a strong focus on sustainability and a reduction of it’s carbon footprint. We encourage environmentally friendly practices in the studio environment and at home. Participants are encouraged to reduce their own carbon footprint when attending our workshops by using local transport and car sharing when appropriate. FE continues to work towards providing sustainable materials from reputable companies. We repurpose and reuse equipment and materials given by members and local businesses. FE’s impact on community wellbeing and individuals mental and social health has continued to be at the fore especially with the effects of the cost-of-living crisis, which strengthened the FE community, placing it in a better position to move forward. Many who struggled with social isolation or mental health issues turned to FE for support during difficult times found the welcoming inclusive environment, peer-to-peer support, and community they needed, which brought its participants closer-together. Stronger ties have also been built with charities and other organisations that FE partners with. This year FE has further proved the efficacy of its model, goals, and ethos by proving it’s sustainability. This sustainability shows that the community sees value in what FE does and is willing to invest in it by taking part in workshops. This has also allowed FE to provide volunteer and employment opportunities for people in the local community. This has a further social and financial benefit to the local community as well as exemplifying FE’s ethos that everyone has some ownership in how the organisation grows and develops. It has also helped participants to develop and realise their skills, potential, and confidence to the point of tutoring their own workshops, producing online tutorials and taking an active part in taking the organisation forward. FE prides itself that members of the community also feel passionate enough about the organisation to put themselves forward and become established tutors and directors of the company. FE has continued with its mentoring program and supported creatives into new careers in the arts, publishing and further education and provided guidance and support for many of it’s diverse and multigenerational membership. FE’s focus has always been to improve the wellbeing of its participants and the importance of individuals mental health needs in our community. FE has become involved in more projects with this aim, such as the Art Journal project run in Dumfries and Galloway by DG Creative Wellbeing curated by OutPost Arts and the Art in Healthcare program also hosted by Outpost Arts and the NHS Endowment Fund This has also included working with The Shambellie House Trust on the development of courses based around mindfulness and wellbeing whilst working with and in nature. Given the success of FE it has continued delivering training in its model, methods, and ethos to enable other groups and organisations to develop their own creative opportunities and improve wellbeing in their own communities, broadening FE’s positive impact. This year has revealed the resilience, strength, sustainability, adaptability, and value of the community that FE has created and the company itself by providing an inclusive, positive, and supportive environment that the community could rely upon to help them through another difficult year and others are now looking to us as a model to improve the wellbeing of their own communities.

Consultation with stakeholders

FE’s stakeholders are five-fold: our participants (those who attend workshops), volunteer placements, workshop hosts, venues, and our tutors/associate artists. FE also partners with several local, regional, and national charities and organisations as noted in the section above. The community FE has created, its stakeholders, are the central focus of FE and its ethos. Due to the inclusive, supportive, and positive nature of the community as well as its non-hierarchical structure much of the feedback from these stakeholders comes informally either during workshops or through our social media platforms. While FE receives regular informal feedback from its stakeholders, it also uses feedback forms and surveys. For Enjoyment constantly assess the quality of what is provided to make sure that stakeholders stay invested in the company and community and have the best possible outcomes and the best possible experiences, be that individuals that attend workshops right through to venue hosts that work with us. For Enjoyment is very much influenced by the wants and needs of its community, it’s ethos and structure is formed by what members need from the organisation, it constantly evolves and adapts to make sure that what is provided is of value of high quality and is suitable for all of the participants that take part in its many varied workshops, sessions, exhibitions, work experience, mentoring placements and events.
