CAPTURING OUR ACTIVITIES WITH YOUR CRAFT
We’re inviting filmmakers, photographers, illustrators, and other creative minds to capture the inspiring and hands-on activities and workshops in a community collaboration bringing arts & heritage together.

Here’s what our current Creative Volunteers had to say about taking part:
“Thank you so much for the opportunity. It was really great to meet everyone involved. I look forward to hearing more about the progress of the project! I got to achieve some great drawing but also getting involved in the workshop was GREAT” – Florrie Ann Thomas

“I was delighted to photograph the recent skills workshops. A really valuable programme… everyone was very accommodating and the day ran seamlessly… I left with a deep appreciation of the wide ranging scope of the organisation which has been supporting the community and disadvantaged since 1799. If you ever have chance to attend one of their many events, I'd highly recommend a closer look.” – David Peach
