Partnerships
Central to much of what we do is a network of amazing creative and community partnerships with likeminded friends. Together, we collaborate on extraordinary projects and deliver valuable outcomes, both in our own programme of events, and out in our wider community.
We regularly work with a host of community groups, charities, businesses, educational partners and generous funders, from around the city, the wider region, and at a national level. We also provide a supportive home for several independent creative organisations in our Bradninch Place HQ and other umbrella locations in the city.
