ClearCompany CIC continued to champion inclusive community development through creative, wellbeing, and enterprise-based initiatives. Our activities were significantly enhanced by leasing and launching That Little Norfolk Shop & Studio (TNLSS) in the Abbey Schoolrooms, Wymondham, Norfolk. TNLSS has rapidly become a vibrant hub for community engagement, wellbeing support, and creative enterprise. Throughout the year, we delivered a diverse range of programmes, including: - Sound Cafe sessions: Offering access to instruments, a PA system, and performance opportunities for young people, especially those facing neurodivergence, mental health challenges, or financial hardship. - Community and wellbeing workshops: Covering areas such as cookery, arts, upcycling, creative writing, and bushcraft. Many sessions were run by volunteer community trainers, artists, and practitioners. - Dedicated support for vulnerable groups, such as homeless women and young people not in education or employment. - Festivals and fairs: We ran major events such as the Abbey Christmas, Easter and Summer Fairs, and the town’s Wynterfest. The hub enabled us to provide: - Volunteer and mentoring opportunities - 1-to-1 coaching - Social spaces (Games Cafe, Breastfeeding Cafe) - Artisan retail through the shop space, which supports over 20 local creatives and makers. Consultations and feedback confirmed the value of TNLSS in fostering inclusion, community resilience, and personal development.
ClearCompany CIC places stakeholder consultation at the heart of its decision making. Over the latest reporting year, we gathered input from a wide spectrum of individuals and groups to shape our activities and strategy. 1. Local vendors, artisans, trainers, musicians and small business owners Through That Little Norfolk Studio and our online shop, we connected directly with local entrepreneurs. Feedback via our online marketplace - and shared testimonials on our website - highlight the impact on participants. As one vendor noted, the marketplace provides “an instant outlet for new and developing businesses to showcase their products and services.” 2. Workshop participants and community service users From arts, cookery, upcycling, to social meetups and the Games Cafe, we actively solicit feedback in session and through surveys. Input has guided extensions to workshop topics and formats, ensuring they meet community needs. 3. Street food fayre traders and event visitors Insights from our travelling fayre model (2021 initiative continuing in spirit) were reviewed to shape events at TNLSS. Organisers convened regular check-ins with stallholders - implementing Covid safe measures and adapting formats - illustrating our consultative and responsive approach. 4. Online community via Facebook and Instagram Our Facebook page hosts polls, Q&A sessions and, and call for ideas posts. Responses have influenced event themes, workshop design, opening hours, and pricing models. On Instagram - especially via That Little Norfolk Studio’s account - comments and direct messages frequently inform what’s offered next - from musical themes in our Sound Cafe to new creative workshops photography, artisan crafts, etc. These platforms also provide qualitative feedback that directly informs decision making. 5. Partnership with public sector and voluntary organisations We facilitated structured visits and discussions with Wymondham Town Team, South Norfolk Council, Norfolk Community Foundation and local schools. These informed the planning of one to one wellbeing support integrated with our public events and shop space. 6. Community volunteers and mentors Volunteers working at the Games Cafe, Breastfeeding Cafe, retail shop, and as workshop assistants participate in regular debriefs. Their insights help refine session formats, improve safeguarding protocols, and build stronger visitor experiences. How feedback drove change - Extended opening hours at the studio and cafe in response to family and working community feedback. - Expanded artistic diversity in creative programmes: community feedback prompted new craft techniques, inclusive musical styles, and materials to attract neurodivergent participants. - Improved vendor support, such as grant writing help and one to one business mentoring - responding to expressed needs from sellers in both the online marketplace and studio retail environment.
