Company activities and impact

Over the last year, We Belong Here has focused on engaging young people from deprived areas and South Asian communities across West Yorkshire, primarily working in Halifax, Gomersal, and Leeds. We were commissioned by Calderdale City Council to deliver two large-scale community art projects. In Halifax city centre we represented South Asian migrant history in the textile industry from the 1950s to 1980s, collecting oral histories from local elders. This project is still ongoing and will culminate in a 60-metre stone installation. In Mixenden, we created a basketball court mural with over 100 young people, partnering with Active Calderdale, Calderdale Play Services, Youth Services, schools and churches to strengthen community engagement. For the second year, we partnered with PPG Industries to deliver their national CSR programme Colourful Communities, producing a large-scale mural and tapestry co-created with pupils at Gomersal Primary School, supported by creative freelancers and over 50 volunteers. We also delivered projects for older people, working with Burmantofts Community Friends and the British Library to co-produce an exhibition and documentary on the Lost Corner Shops of Leeds. We supported independent Black writer Tina Shingler (aged 60 plus) with website design, branding and social media, enabling greater media literacy and creative opportunities. In collaboration with Starving Artists, we developed an Access Fund proposal to improve diversity and accessibility in arts application processes, successfully pitching to partners including New Contemporaries, Parker Harris, The Art House and New Art Exchange. Through these projects, we have engaged diverse communities of all ages, nurturing creativity, collaboration and cultural representation using art.

Consultation with stakeholders

Our key stakeholders include community members, cultural organisations and creative freelancers in West Yorkshire, such as Calderdale City Council, Active Calderdale, local primary schools, creative freelancers, volunteers, and funders, including PPG Industries and British Library. Throughout the year, we have consulted these stakeholders through a variety of methods, including community workshops, regular meetings with partner organisations and commissioners, volunteer feedback sessions, and one-to-one conversations with artists and project participants. For example, the ongoing South Asian migrant history project has involved continuous dialogue with elders and community representatives to ensure their stories and perspectives shape the work authentically. In response to stakeholder feedback, we have adapted project designs to better reflect community priorities, increased accessibility in our events, and strengthened local partnerships to improve outreach and engagement. This ongoing consultation ensures our projects remain relevant, inclusive, and impactful for the communities we serve and is deeply a part of our approach and methodology as a CIC.
