20 Years of Creating Wellbeing, Inclusion and Empowerment
Manage episode 384758947 series 3343644
Nicky Goulder, CEO of the charity Create, recently received an Amazing Women award celebrating her as an ‘Arts Innovator.’ The British magazine, Women and Home, sold worldwide, hosts these awards for women making a big difference in the world. And this is indeed a very celebratory year. Founded 20 years ago, Create is now a multi-award-winning charity empowering the lives of society’s most disadvantaged and vulnerable people. In fact, Create has won more than 120 awards since 2012 and has worked with 40, 000 + people since it started. This is a charity that changes lives through the creative arts, connecting, inspiring and empowering the people they work with. Working with artists, Create delivers purposeful projects for young and adult carers, disabled adults and children, prisoners, pensioners, marginalised groups including the homeless, refugees and the LGBTQ+ community. Currently Create has partnered on a nationwide Feeding Creativity campaign with the bakers Jacksons of Yorkshire. Publicised on millions of loaves of bread, Feeding Creativity is reaching schools and children nationwide whilst raising awareness of young carers. We talk about dad's in prison, carers as young as four years old, the pandemic urgency to reach new and existing participants, the importance of celebrating, why creativity matters and the evidence for Arts and wellbeing, including increasing life expectancy by ten years.
