Creative Future – Matt Freidson Following on from their Round 1 funded project, ‘Who am I, Who could I be?’, Creative Future aims to enrich and develop people on society’s margins to use creativity to unlock their personal, professional and artistic potential through a series of workshops using creative art, creative writing and peer group coaching. By unlocking creativity, they hope to inspire, impart confidence, decrease isolation and improve mental health. This year they will expand the reach and scope of their first project, incorporating suggestions from R1 participants, to include 3 x large group sessions on work/life/creative balance, finding purpose and passion, and reducing overwhelm. Beneficiaries: up from 75 to 130 people (55 more than in R1) in Brighton & Hove area; largely long-term unemployed and those who are marginalised
