Case Studies

Naz Project London

Joyful Noise Choir for people living with HIV

“I love singing and performing, so this is a great opportunity to engage in a meaningful project. I also like the fact that it’s for people living with HIV and I feel accepted and loved, and I can be myself fully without feeling stigmatised!”

Nucleo Project

Free weekly classes and loan of musical instruments for children aged 7+ in London.

“Without Nucleo, I would never have gotten the chance to play the violin.”

Hay Festival Foundation

Six creative artists aged 21-28 showcased their work in front of a live festival audience.

“The Platform has probably been the highlight of my career so far. It was so amazing to be with creative, brilliant artists who have all really inspired my own practice and also getting to see Bradley Taylor and where he is now. It has been career-changing for me getting a credit with such a renowned festival and I’m so excited to see what doors it can open for me. I would absolutely recommend people to apply!”

New Pespectives Theatre

“Being a New Associate has opened many doors to collaborations, inspirations and confidence.”
