welland trust bursaries
Making Space is delighted to announce a fantastic opportunity funded by The Welland Trust Charity. We are looking to establish a creative community of care experienced people who will join us for group sessions at Making Space and enjoy free bursary placements on our creative programme.
The Welland Trust supports projects and initiatives that benefit adults who have experienced care. We define 'Care Experienced' as someone who has lived in care at any point in their life. This includes foster care, residential care, kinship care, or at home with a supervision order.
We hope the established community will benefit from coming together, increased creative skills & knowledge, enhanced physical and mental well-being and enjoy the opportunities on offer. Over the twelve months of activity, each participant will get to try two specialist 5-wk courses of their choice, join in with a monthly Craft Club and Open Studios taster sessions and take part in a fun initial engagement workshop to get to know one another and get creative!
This opportunity is completely free to access, no referral is needed and is suitable for those 16yrs+ but there is no limit on age for participants. There is space for 10 individuals to get involved there is no application process.
