Carving Community is a Community Interest Company that specialises in engaging with young people, their families and the community they live in. We take as our starting point, the belief that through building meaningful relationships using creativity and imagination, young people can transform their lives and develop a personal sense of authority. We maintain that each young person has their own unique gifts and qualities and it is through our professional engagement that we can reflect back to the individual what we have witnessed and support and encourage them to pursue those talents. Our work embraces destructive and complex behaviours expressed by young people and encourages them to incorporate their feelings into a creative process rather than being harmful to themselves, others or their environments. Our work centres on the practical use of hand tools such as axes, blades, draw knives, mauls and spades. We provide a safe outdoor environment in which our experienced team can work with and accommodate young people’s needs. Previous work has shown that creative work with tools can help to redirect negative, destructive behaviours and create positive outcome for the wider community. In 2024 we have continued to pause on direct projects, in order to apply for larger funding pots both to support the development of an accessible community workshop in Mid Devon and accompanying city/town/village outreach projects across the South West using our mobile toolbox. The mobile toolbox enables us to offer projects in the heart of young people’s communities where creativity, conflict, challenge & the opportunity for new connections co-exist side by side. We aim to commence our new offer in Autumn 2025 and are in discussions with local housing associations to develop projects. We would like to thank our previous and current funders, partners, facilitators, young assis-tants, volunteers and community makers for their support, willingness, good will and generos-ity of spirit. Carving Community CIC continues to believe that it is more important than ever to celebrate and cherish diversity and to create opportunities to dialogue with hands and hearts through our differences. Please see our Facebook page for references to our most recent projects www.facebook.com/carvingcommunity
Funding proposals include feasibility studies and focus groups across our partners, with young people, families, local creatives, and wider communities to ensure our offer fits their needs. The Inside/Outside Project will be evaluated by an external evaluator.
