In July we said a fond farewell to our Arts Linked Up project – an incredible three-year journey made possible thanks to the amazing support of the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. 💛
Over the past three years we've had the privilege of working alongside 6 primary schools, 12 nurseries and more than 400 children, using the power of the arts to nurture confidence, communication, creativity and emotional wellbeing.
Through music, movement, art and imaginative play, we've helped children develop essential life skills, supported educators to embed creative approaches into everyday learning, and created inclusive spaces where every child could shine.
We've seen children grow in confidence, find their voice and discover the joy of learning through creativity. Those moments, and the relationships we've built along the way, are a legacy that will continue long after the project has ended.
A huge thank you to every child, teacher, teaching assistant, nursery practitioner, parent and partner who has been part of this journey. Your enthusiasm, commitment and belief in the power of the arts has made this project so special.
A very special thank you also goes to our fabulous Arts Linked Up team – Alex and Macy, together with Jenny, Sophy, Amy, Jordie and Emma, and our wonderful Prep Team. Your creativity, passion, energy and dedication have inspired hundreds of children and made this project the success it has been. We couldn't have done it without you.
Thank you, The Paul Hamlyn Foundation, for believing in our vision and helping hundreds of children take those little steps that lead to big things. ❤️
Watch out for our impact report, coming this autumn, and keep an eye out for the next exciting chapter of our Arts Linked Up journey.
