Creating Opportunity - Changing Lives
Creating Opportunity - Changing Lives
We’re an award winning Leicester charity using arts, media and music activities as a tool to engage with and change the lives of disadvantaged young people.
Mentors needed to work with young people - apply now for our summer intake.
Cambridge & Counties Bank love to work with charities. Over the past year with funding awarded from the bank via the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Community Foundation, Soft Touch Arts has been able to pilot a Creative Enterprise Project, giving new opportunities and support to 24 young people aged 16-25 involved with the charity. Through one to one and group enterprise sessions they have gained skills in making, marketing and selling their art, craft, fashion and photography work.
UpSTart uses fun creative activities to engage young people from New Parks, Beaumont Leys, Stocking Farm or Mowmacre Hill who need support.
Creative Studio provides a tailor-made specialist alternative arts programme for young people who need extra support and don’t fit into a traditional educational setting.
Our new music project funded by the Mighty Youth Music launched this April!
