We continue to bring creativity to our community in a multitude of ways. Our original shop that sells locally made products on behalf of small creative businesses is the foundation of our organisation. From here we support local creative businesses who then get involved in key creative projects we are commissioned for locally enabling many creatives to earn a living from being freelance creative practitioners. These freelancers can skill share via our workshop and community, creative studio space which also helps them support themselves financially. These workshops, clubs & creative projects have a huge positive impact on our community by facilitating creative space where the public can learn new skills, be together and make new friends increasing well being and belonging in our community. We work with people from diverse ethnic backgrounds and all age groups with beneficiaries from 3 months to 93 years. We are a predominantly female organisation and seem to have higher proportion of people who identify as female as our participants & beneficiaries. There are many people who are neuro diverse in our organisation. We try to make our space accessible & welcoming for those with disabilities.
Our shop members & creative community are our stakeholders as well as Ashford as a whole! The local council are also very important to be kept in the loop. We chat face to face to our members & engage them in conversations about how we evolve & develop. We have a Facebook group where all info is shared and folks are encouraged to give feedback and ideas. We send a monthly report to Ashford Borough Council and we have regular meeting with them also.
