Job opportunity at Creativity Works - Creativity Works Legacy Director Previous Job Next Job Creativity Works seeks a Legacy Director. We are seeking for someone who can manage, shape and pass on to a new generation a legacy of 40 years imaginative and creative work. Based in the North East Somerset town of Radstock, Creativity Works has worked as a social arts agency, developing programmes and projects that have helped to transform people and places by unlocking their creative potential. Our multi-artform programme that includes festivals, artists residencies, creative workshops, exhibitions, celebratory events and public art. We focus our energies on audiences in communities underserved by traditional arts provision and on artists, nurturing their talent over the long term and offering training and support so they could develop and thrive. We are proud of what has been achieved but now it’s time to hand our legacy on to others. Creativity Works has had a regular funding relationship with the Arts Council England (ACE) since 2017, but in April 2023 this came to an end. As these funds provided nearly all of our core income that covered staff and other essential overhead costs, this put the financial future of the organisation in doubt. Using reserves and Transition funds from ACE has enabled the organisation to deliver existing projects and programmes to which it is committed but having operated without a Director to lead the organisation since November, we now face the departure of our last employee in August, leaving us without any staff. The Board of Trustees has decided therefore that in such circumstances we should cease operation and wind the charity up but do so in such a manner to preserve as much of Creativity Works’ legacy and learning as possible and hand its assets, if possible, to others with similar values and aims. We are looking for a Legacy Director who can take on a short-term commitment to take charge of the organisation and oversee the necessary administrative, financial and legal processes involved, manage existing contracts and commitments, put in place plans for winding down or handing over to other delivery organisations and liaise with stakeholders, funders and partners to shape and hand on Creativity Works creative and artistic legacy. We are seeking someone diligent, confident and experienced in working in a third sector organisation who can liaise with a wide variety of stakeholders and funders, artists and participants, as well as ensuring full compliance with legal and financial regulations and procedures. The Legacy Director will work closely with the Chair of the Board of Trustees and be supported with all necessary legal and financial professional advice. Remuneration: £38,000 pro rata on a freelance basis. We are looking for someone to start as soon as possible, with a contract running until October 31st, although this could be extended if the Board thinks it is necessary. We can be flexible about working arrangements but what is important is that we have someone who can commit to efficiently winding down the organisation and leading on creating and sharing a lasting legacy. Ideally the role is full time but this is negotiable, but we would like a minimum of at least 3 days a week, one of which should be a Monday and with at least one day in our office in Radstock. Interested? Please email Martin Pople, Chair of the Board of Trustees, at martinpople58@gmail.com with a brief CV and a contact telephone number for a preliminary discussion. < All Jobs Creativity Works Legacy Director Salary: £38,000 pro rata on a freelance basis Hours: 3 days + Contract Type: part time / full time Location: Radstock and home working Close Date: Monday, 7 August 2023 Email Contact: martinpople58@gmail.com < All Jobs Previous Job Next Job Apply for Job

Voices of Aphasia Brief Description of Organisation We run accessible choirs for people with aphasia (communication difficulties after stroke or brain injury) to sing together with their loved ones. Visit Website Full Description of Organisation Voices of Aphasia’s flagship project, the Bath Aphasia Choir, is an accessible and supportive singing group for people with aphasia and their loved ones to sing together. Aphasia is the term for neurological problems with communication and language,including speech, reading and writing. It can present after a brain injury (including stroke) which causes damage to the parts of the brain responsible for processing andproducing language. One third of people who survive a stroke will be left with aphasia, and a sudden loss of language ability can feel very frustrating and can leave people feeling isolated and depressed. Because music and singing are processed throughout the brain, some people with aphasia find that although they can’t speak fluently, they are still able to sing –particularly familiar songs. We know that singing, particularly in a group, can help to improve people’s mood and emotional wellbeing. This combined benefit has led to the creation of choirs for people with aphasia and other neurological conditions around the world, although ours was one of the first in the UK. Our choir is led by Music Therapists Laura Cook and Denise Wong. Through using accessible materials and communication techniques we support people with aphasia and their loved ones to sing together, and offer a supportive and understanding environment where people can share their experiences, practise their communication skills and make new friends. We sing uplifting and meaningful songs, and offer a safe and understanding space for people with aphasia and those who love and care for them to come together and support each other. The choir has been established for six years, with many founding members still attending. We recently held a fundraising concert with around 50 supporters attending, and currently we have around 20 active choir members joining our weekly choirsessions. We work closely with the Stroke Association and the HCRG Community Stroke and Neuro team in Bath and North East Somerset to signpost people with aphasia to our choir. We have also managed a student placement for MA music therapy students in Bristol, North Somerset and South Glos, in partnership with the Sirona Care and Health Integrated Community Stroke Service. We have previously received funding from St John's Foundation and we are currently supported by Quartet and National Lottery Awards for All. We would love to build more connection with other organisations supporting health and wellbeing through music and creative arts, and those involved in social prescribing initiatives. Please do get in touch through the 3SG website or email voicesofaphasia@gmail.com to get in touch with Laura and Denise!

Bath Autism and Neurodiversity Spectrums CIC Brief Description of Organisation Isolation reduction strategy within Bath and beyond for over 18s affected by neurodivergence. Visit Website Full Description of Organisation Bath Autism and NeuroDiversity spectrums (BANDs) CIC As featured on the ITV West Country News at 6pm, Friday 11th November 2022 "No problem too big, no achievement too small", "Different spectrums, same aims" BANDs run social opportunities and meetings for over 18s who identify on the autism, Asperger syndrome and similar spectrums, including (but not limited to) AD(H)D, Non-Verbal Learning Disorder, dyslexia, dyspraxia, social anxiety, dyscalculia, Bipolar, Borderline Personality disorder, Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder, OCD and schizophrenia. Participants may attend the group regardless of a diagnosis. Anyone who identifies as having something similar to these conditions will be considered for inclusion on a case-by-case basis. Even most of the facilitators are neurodivergent. BANDs aims to provide a safe and welcoming environment for people, especially those without social opportunities which encourage peer-to-peer networking and developing and maintaining shared interests (Mazurek, 2013). The groups include a cinema group, café group and pub group (including the Christmas meal). The CEO is on hand to clarify and implement the guidelines of the groups (NAS, 2003). BANDs encourages anyone regardless of location to attend. To encourage independent travel by potential members (Walton and Ingersoll, 2013) on public transport, videos including directions can be sent to you on request. We can also help with public transport route planning on request. Attendees to the groups have to pay for any activities they participate in: the drinks, snacks, meals, cinema tickets, venue hire, transport to and from the groups. BANDs are seeking funding to pay volunteers' travel expenses to and from the groups, and are also hoping to hire a quieter location to create a self-advocacy group. This could enable people who experience sensory overload (Rohit, 2013), who prefer a more private venue first before transitioning towards the groups to attend. Mazurek. M.
