Kunst und Kreativität können Fähigkeiten aufbauen, Selbstvertrauen und Wohlbefinden steigern und zum Tor für eine zukünftige Beschäftigung werden. Dies ist besonders wichtig für diejenigen, die kein Zuhause haben.
Local Charities Dover smART project and Porchlight have teamed up to run “Bridge the Gap – the Next Steps” two week long courses to enable people who are homeless to be successful in their future lives. Those taking part will be encouraged to write personal biographies of their lives so far in a variety of ways including art, photography and writing. Both weeks will end with an exhibition of their work.
The Civic and Special Projects Committee of the Council received a presentation from Dover smART at their recent meeting and voted to back the project with a £1,000 grant.
