The Wallich’s exciting project, funded by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation, aims to explore and test the impact of a variety of participatory arts opportunities in Mid – North, South East and South West Wales.
We are currently working with creative practitioners to facilitate a series of workshops.
The Wallich is a psychologically informed organisation.
This means we see responding to homelessness as more than a roof over someone’s head.
Diversionary activities, such as arts or sport, are often important tools for responding to, and recovering from, trauma.
Many of the people we support have always been very expressive and creative. Developing outlets for this creativity, as a trauma informed approach to ending repeat cycles of homelessness, addiction and mental health crisis, is a priority for The Wallich.
Are you a freelance creative practitioner with experience of working with participants from at risk or socially excluded groups?
The Wallich is looking for three experienced and enthusiastic practitioners specialising in creative media to facilitate workshops in three areas; Mid – North Wales, South West Wales and South East Wales between September and December 2022.
The Wallich is a leading homelessness and rough sleeping charity.
As part of an ‘Explore and Test’ project, funded by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation, workshop content will be led by interested practitioners, and we’re keen to explore any and all ideas.
We will co-produce the workshops in collaboration with our service users, to make sure they are appealing and beneficial to everyone.
We are asking each of the three creative practitioners to deliver:
