Supported by a three-year core funded programme from The Baring Foundation, Charnwood Arts, in partnership with Loughborough Youth Affairs and Charnwood Independent Youth Action, is currently developing a new project to work with young refugees and asylum seekers and other young people in the Borough of Charnwood, North Leicestershire.

We want to create a project which will enable young people to engage more widely in the artistic and social life of the area whilst exploring both their own individual artistic talents and working collaboratively with others. This is a project which will enable them to learn new skills, explore and share their own cultural heritage, create new works and engage with a wider range of arts and cultural experiences on offer locally.

We are looking for a creative person with exceptional personal qualities and resilience to work to develop new creative relationships, undertake projects and support individual development in and through the arts over the three year period whilst working closely with other agencies engaged with the participants.
