Company activities and impact

The company supports community groups in Stroud to access long term spaces for their work. This year we have opened our first building Redz: Youth Hub with a number of great youth community groups. The Youth Hub opened in April 2025 (during the 24/25 financial year) and has benefited the community in the following ways: Hosted 50+ sessions for local young people including: drop-ins, training, art clubs and film evenings - all of which promote learning, connection and give space for young people in the middle of town. We’ve worked closely with the youth-leaders to develop a youth-led structure for the building which promotes empowerment and teaches them practical management skills. Hosted 10+ intergenerational community events - dinners, workshops and film screenings - which have worked to promote stronger community relationships, reduce isolation and create spaces for 2-way learning. The co-working space at Redz is used 5+ days a week by young people and many of them are eating at least one healthy meal there each day - with food often provided by the local food hub network which promotes local sustainability and health. Young people led the design and build phase of the youth hub opening where they learnt practical skills, co-design principles and practiced delivering a practical project to a timeline for launch day.

Consultation with stakeholders

The company’s stakeholders are community members of Stroud and the 5 Valleys - especially young people (13-30 years old). With our focus on Redz Youth hub we’ve been working directly with the young leaders themselves to design, build and run the building. This has been an ongoing process of active consultation with weekly meetings and working groups under our ‘youth-led’ model. Alongside this active consultation we have on site a feedback box which is checked regularly by the working group leads. A key piece of learning here was about neurodiversity based accessibility to the building - especially Autism - and we’ve set up an ‘accessibility’ working group to make sure the feedback is processed and changes made. So far this has meant setting up a ‘time-out’ quiet space, changing the lighting and producing a picture guide of the building for people to view before they come. Redz has also hosted 2 youth assemblies which have brought in 15-20 young people for an afternoon of consultation on what events/sessions they’d like to see at the building. The learning from this went into starting our saturday drop-ins, wednesday art groups and Bluez as a black-led music night for young artists in the area. We’re continuing to develop this form of assembly based consultation and believe it gives young people real agency over the future of the project.
