Company activities and impact

We continue to host community events we have hosted and participated in throughout the year. We have facilitated screenings of our film, collective hum, and have spoken on panels about the work we do. We have done internal work as a collective with a liberation facilitator to ensure our collective processes and foundations are robust and resilient. We transitioned into our new studio where we have been offering the studio for use for free to members of our community. All activities listed have benefited the community by giving them access to resources that would otherwise not be accessible to them. This has helped skills based learning, access to creative networks, creative expression, wellbeing and community organising.
