We believe that we can achieve more in partnership with others and that together we can better tackle inequalities and achieve social change.
Throughout our history we have consistently worked with those in the third sector; trusts & foundations, public bodies, housing associations, and educational establishments to jointly deliver powerful economic, social and cultural benefits to the most marginalised communities and groups in Scotland.
Strong evidence recognises that creative engagement can achieve significant impact and add value in various different settings. Impact Arts uses creative engagement as a ‘hook’ from which to establish relationships of trust. This provides an opportunity for people & communities to share their often hidden feelings, vulnerabilities, goals and aspirations. This enables us to achieve a wide variety of outcomes and achieve transformational change, including improvements in mental health and wellbeing and reducing social isolation, Most importantly, it’s fun!
“I have had the pleasure of working with Impact Arts on several different project proposals, ideas and projects. What a vibrant, creative and most of all, friendly organisation to work with!”
– Jon Giddings Reid, Shettleston Housing Association
